Answer:

10,600

Step-by-step explanation:

The bacteria grew in 2 hours by 800. Divide that and that it by 400 per hour.

Since it is a proportional rate, we can assume that the rate continue through till midnight.

Since midnight is 12 hours after noon then the bacteria grow 400 (12)=4800.

We add this to the population at noon 5800+4800=10,600.

Answer:

The total number of U.S. high school students that played on a sports team that year can be estimated to be 7,950,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the random sample, we can expect that \frac{250000}{500000}=\frac{1}{2} of all students played on a sports team that year. So in the bigger sample of 15900000 high school students, we can expect 15900000 \cdot \frac{1}{2} = 7950000 students to have played on a sports team that year.
