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.

Answer:

1047.2 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

V = 4(pi)(r³/3)

V = 4(pi)(125/3)

V = 523.6 cubic inches (1 ball)

V = 2(523.6) = 1047.2 cubic inches (total)

you should have $16 and a coupon for a $5 discount at a local supermarket. a bottle of olive oil costs$7. how many bottles of ol
natta225 [31]
Each bottle costs seven dollars. Two of them would cost $14 and three would cost $21. Buying three bottles, the amount is $21 which exceeds $16. Therefore, a $5 discount will be given. Subtracting $5 from the $21 will give $16. You have just enough amount to buy THREE bottles of olive oil.
