Tumor counts: A cancer laboratory is estimating the rate of tumorigenesis in two strains of mice, A and B. They have tumor count

data for 10 mice in strain A and 13 mice in strain B. Type A mice have been well studied, and information from other laboratories suggests that type A mice have tumor counts that are approximately Poisson-distributed with a mean of 12. Tumor count rates for type B mice are unknown, but type B mice are related to type A mice. The observed tumor counts for the two populations are

Answer:

The observed tumor counts for the two populations of mice are:

Type A mice = 10 * 12 = 120 counts

Type B mice = 13 * 12 = 156 counts

Step-by-step explanation:

Since type B mice are related to type A mice and given that type A mice have tumor counts that are approximately Poisson-distributed with a mean of 12, we can then assume that the mean of type A mice tumor count rate is equal to the mean of type B mice tumor count rate.

This is because the Poisson distribution can be used to approximate the the mean and variance of unknown data (type B mice count rate) using known data (type A mice tumor count rate).  And the Poisson distribution gives the probability of an occurrence within a specified time interval.

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Terms/Coefficients
  • Coordinates (x, y)
  • Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>

y = 2x - 7

y = -x + 5

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

<em>Substitution</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>y</em>:                                                                                                2x - 7 = -x + 5
  2. [Addition Property of Equality] Isolate <em>x</em> terms:                                            3x - 7 = 5
  3. [Addition Property of Equality] Isolate <em>x</em> term:                                              3x = 12
  4. [Division Property of Equality] Isolate <em>x</em>:                                                       x = 4

<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>

  1. Define original equation:                                                                               y = -x + 5
  2. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                                                                                                y = -4 + 5
  3. Add:                                                                                                                 y = 1
