Time series are particularly useful to track variables such as
revenues, costs, and profits over time. Time series models help
evaluate performance and make predictions. Consider the following
and respond in a minimum of 175 words:
Time series decomposition seeks to separate the time series (Y)
into 4 components: trend (T), cycle (C), seasonal (S), and
irregular (I). What is the difference between these
components?
The model can be additive or multiplicative.When we do use an

It appears that over the past 50 years, the number of farms in
the United States declined while the average size of farms
increased. The following data provided by the U.S. Department of
Agriculture show five-year interval data for U.S. farms. Use these
data to develop the equation of a regression line to predict the
average size of a farm (y) by the number of farms (x). Discuss the
slope and y-intercept of the model. Year Number of Farms (millions)...
