Suppose a set of data about the spread (in hundreds of acres) of a food-borne bacteria (after t weeks) in lettuce has the follow

ing percentage rates of change: 0.9%, 1.3%, 1.1%, 1.0%, 1.3%, 1.0%; and the following average rates of change: 2.9, 2.4, 3.7, 3.1, 3.6, 3.2. Based only on the information given, and without doing any calculations, what type of model would you use? Why? (NOTE THAT the information given is not the actual data set. I have calculated the two types of rate of change for you. You should NOT BE CALCULATING ANYTHING!) Comment:What tells you that the relation is best fit by a linear model? Use principles about what kinds of functions have consistency in which types of rates of change?

AnnZ [12381]
The calculated 95% confidence interval for the percentage of coffee drinkers expressing addiction ranges from 21% to 31%. By defining the sample proportion and acknowledging a sample size of 675, while also factoring in a maximum margin of sampling error set at ±5%, the final confidence interval for addiction rates among all surveyed coffee drinkers is established.

According to the manufacturer, about 26% of sour candy in a package of Sandy's Sours are grape. What is the probability that the
Zina [12379]

Response:


Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming there are 100 sour candies, thus-  

since 26% of the candies are grape, it follows that 26% of 100 candies means we have 26 grape candies

Consequently, the remaining candies that are not grape amount to 100-26 = 74

Applying the multiplication principle:

P(A ∩ B) = P(A)/ P(B|A)  

 Initially, there are 26 grape candies, therefore the probability of selecting the first grape candy =  26C1 = 26

 After choosing the first one, we put the selected grape candy back, so there are still 100 candies total P(B|A) = 100C3 = 100 x 99 x 98 x 97!/3! X 97!

= 50 x 33 x 98

Thus, the probability becomes 1/ 50 x 33 x 98 x 26

= 1/4204200

Answer:

This situation illustrates Extrapolation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Extrapolation involves predicting the future based on the premise that current or historical trends will persist.

This also entails assuming the methodologies employed to gauge past trends will apply in the future.

For instance, consider projections regarding global population.

In this case, the number of Elvis Presley impersonators has risen from 48 at his death in 1977 to 7,328 today. If we estimate that by 2016, one in four individuals will become an Elvis impersonator based on the growth trend, this exemplifies Extrapolation.
