Answer:
An interesting experiment is given. We need to address various questions based on our knowledge of calculus.
Step 2
Part (a)
Time taken for the radius to grow to 2 cm = t1 = r/0.5 = 2/0.5 = 4 hours
Time taken for the radius to become 0 = t2 and the same can be obtained by solving:
r = 2 - √t2 = 0
Hence, t2 = 22 = 4 hours
Hence, the time duration of the entire experiment (from the introduction of the bacteria until its disappearance) = t1 + t2 = 4 + 4 = 8 hours
Step 3
Part (b)
r(t) = 0.5t for 0 ≤ t ≤ 4
and
r(t) = 2 - √(t - 4) for t > 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, so the third and fourth don't seem right. I am going to assume it's either 1 or 2. Sorry if you get it wrong because of me.
Answer:
We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to determine if the mean is greater than specified value, the system of hypothesis would be:
Null hypothesis:
Alternative hypothesis:
For this case the significance is 1%. So we need to find a critical value in the normal standard distribution who accumulates 0.99 of the area in the left and 0.01 in the right and for this case this critical value is:

Step-by-step explanation:
Notation
represent the sample mean
represent the standard deviation for the population
sample size
represent the value that we want to test
represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.
z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)
State the null and alternative hypotheses.
