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.

How can $54,000 be invested part at 8% annual simple Interest and the remainder at 10% annual simple interest so that the intere
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

0.08x = $5400-0.1x Add 0.1x to both sides of the equation.

0.18x = $5400 Divide both sides by 0.18

x = $3000 and $54000-$3000 = $24000

$3,000 is invested at 8%

$2,400 is invested at 10%
