a) Consider a manufacturing cell consisting of 6 machines, located at the following points in the x-y coordinate plane: (xī.yi)-(4,1), (x2.y2)-(2,3), (x3.y3)-(3,8), (X4.y4)-(5,8). (xs,ys) (9,3), (x6,ys) (7,2) We need to find a suitable spot, (x.y), for a robot such that its arm can easily reach each of the machines. Suppose we to select (x,y) such that it minimizes the distance from all the machines in a least squares sense, i.e., it minimizes dk where dk denotes the distance of the...
Exercise 5.10. Consider the set of n + 2 points: (1,1),(2, 1), (3,2), (3,2),...,(3,2) Suppose you wish to best-fit these to a line y = mx + b using least-squares. (a) Write down the corresponding matrix equation. (b) Solve for using the method of least squares. Make sure you simplify: the answer should not be complicated. (c) Find limin (d) The line corresponding to your answer in (c) passes through (3,2). Why does this make sense?

(1 point) Find the least-squares regression line û = bo + b x through the points (-2,0), (1,6), (6, 15), (9, 18), (12, 23), and then use it to find point estimates ŷ corresponding to x = 1 and x = 8. For x = 1, y For x = 8, y =
9) Suppose you are given n points: (x,y)(, y). And we wish to fit a cirele to the data. A general circle, as we all know, is Cr-y+-k. So the question becomes: What are h, k, and r so that the circle becomes the best least squares fit? Show that this problem becomes Th .e. What is a, B and what is M? B, When fitting the cirele to the data points (0,2), (1,2),3,-),(0,-D,6,0) what are the normal equations? GIVE...

(4) (Interpolating polynomials) Say we want to find a polynomial f(x) of degree 3, satisfying some interpolation conditions. In each case below, write a system of linear equations whose solutions are (ao, a1, a2, az). You don't need to solve. (a) We want f(x) to pass through the points(1,-1), (1, 2), (2,1) and (3,5). (b) We want f(x) to pass through (1,0) with derivative +2 and (2,3) with derivative-1 (c)...
2. We distribute n points uniformly and independently on the circumference of a circle, and want to compute the probability that there is a semicircle that contain all of them. (In other words, the probability that there is a line through the center of the circle such that all n points lie on the same side of this line.) Let E be the event that such a semicircle exists. Denote by Pi, P2, ..., Pn the random points, and by...
