Does a solar eclipse occur during the new-Moon, first-quarter, or full-Moon phase of the Moon?

Does a full Moon set—that is, become no longer visible—at noon, sunset, midnight, or sunrise? Should an observer look eastward or westward to see the setting full Moon? (Hint: Earth’s rotation causes the Moon to rise and set.) A full Moon sets at ____. Observer must look ____ to see the setting full Moon.

The equation $\int_{0}^{x} \frac{1}{\sqrt{2 \pi}} e^{-t^{2} / 2} d t=0.45$ can be solved for x by using Newton’s method with $f(x)=\int_{0}^{x} \frac{1}{\sqrt{2 \pi}} e^{-t^{2} / 2} d t-0.45$ and $f^{\prime}(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2 \pi}} e^{-x^{2} / 2}.$ To evaluate $f$ at the approximation $p_k,$ we need a quadrature formula to approximate $\int_{0}^{p_{k}} \frac{1}{\sqrt{2 \pi}} e^{-t^{2} / 2} d t.$ a. Find a solution to $f(x)=0$ accurate to within $10^{-5}$ using Newton’s method with $p_{0}=0.5$ and the Composite Simpson’s rule. b. Repeat (a) using the Composite Trapezoidal rule in place of the Composite Simpson’s rule.

From experience, Japanese cherry trees tend to blossom early when spring weather is warm and later when spring weather is cool. Here are some data on the average March temperature (in $^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$) and the day in April when the first cherry blossom appeared over a 25-year period.

$$\begin{matrix} \text{}{\text { Temperature }\left(^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right) :} & \text{4.0 } & \text{5.4} & \text{3.2} & \text{2.6} & \text{4.2} & \text{4.7} & \text{4.9} & \text{4} & \text{4.9} & \text{3.8} & \text{4} & \text{5.1}\\ \text{Days in April to 1st bloom: } & \text{14 } & \text{8} & \text{11} & \text{19} & \text{14} & \text{14} & \text{14} & \text{21} & \text{9} & \text{14} & \text{13} & \text{11}\\ \text{}{\text { Temperature }\left(^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right) :} & \text{4.3} & \text{1.5} & \text{3.7} & \text{3.8} & \text{4.5} & \text{4.1} & \text{6.1} & \text{6.2} & \text{5.1} & \text{5} & \text{4.6} & \text{4}\\ \text{Days in April to 1st bloom: } & \text{13} & \text{28} & \text{17} & \text{19} & \text{10} & \text{17} & \text{3} & \text{3} & \text{11} & \text{6} & \text{9} & \text{11}\\ \end{matrix}$$

(a) Make a well-labeled scatterplot that is suitable for predicting when the cherry trees will bloom from the temperature. Describe the direction, form, and strength of the relationship. (b) Use technology to find the equation of the least- squares regression line. Interpret the slope and y intercept of the line in this setting. (c) The average March temperature this year was $3.5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$. When do you predict that the first cherry blossom will appear? Show your method clearly. (d) Find the residual for the year when the average March temperature was $4.5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$. Show your work. (e) Use technology to construct a residual plot. Describe what you see. (f) Find and interpret the value of $r^{2}$ in this setting.
