The accompanying table shows the number of bacteria present in a certain culture over a 6 hour period, where x is the time, in h

ours, and y is the number of bacteria. Write an exponential regression equation for this set of data, rounding all coefficients to the nearest thousandth. Using this equation, determine the number of bacteria present after 15 hours, to the nearest whole number.

The number of bacteria present after 15 hours is 18928

<h3>How to determine the exponential equation?</h3>

An exponential equation is represented as;

y = ab^x

Where

a = y, when x = 0

From the table, we have:

y = 1796 when x = 0

So, we have:

y = 1796b^x

Also, we have the point (1, 2097)

This gives

2097 = 1796b^1

Divide by 1796

b = 1.17

Substitute b = 1.17 in y = 1796b^x

y = 1796(1.17)^x

This means that the exponential equation is y = 1796(1.17)^x

After 15 hours, we have:

y = 1796(1.17)^15

Evaluate

y = 18928

Hence, the number of bacteria present after 15 hours is 18928

US average math SAT scores follow a normal distribution with a mean of 505 and a standard deviation of 112. A sample of 64 enter
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

The claim that the scores of UT students are less than the US average is wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Sample size = 64

           Standard deviation = 112

           Mean = 505

           Average score = 477

To Find : Test the claim that the scores of UT students are less than the US average at the 0.05 level of significance.

Solution:

Sample size = 64

n > 30

So we will use z test

H_0:\mu \geq 477\\H_a:\mu < 477

Formula : z=\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z=\frac{505-477}{\frac{112}{\sqrt{64}}}

z=2

Refer the z table for p value

p value = 0.9772

α=0.05

p value > α

So, we accept the null hypothesis

Hence The claim that the scores of UT students are less than the US average is wrong
