(a) The number of cases on May 1, 2014, was approximately 188.59.
(b) The number of cases on November 24, 2014, was approximately 27107.76.
(c) C(92) = 1715.70.
This means that on the 92nd day from May 1, 2014, the number of Ebola cases in Africa was approximately 1715.70.
Computed using the exponential equation, [tex]C(t) = 188.59e^{0.024t}[/tex].
We are given that the spread of the Ebola virus in Africa in 2014 could be modeled by the exponential equation, [tex]C(t) = 188.59e^{0.024t}[/tex], where C represents the number of cases and t represents the number of days since May 1, 2014.
(a) In the question, we are asked for the approximate number of cases on May 1, 2014.
Since, the date is May 1, 2014, t = 0.
Thus, the number of cases, C, can be calculated by putting t = 0, in the exponential equation, [tex]C(t) = 188.59e^{0.024t}[/tex].
[tex]C(0) = 188.59e^{0.024*0}\\\Rightarrow C(0) = 188.59e^0\\\Rightarrow C(0) = 188.59[/tex]
Thus, the number of cases on May 1, 2014, was approximately 188.59.
(b) In the question, we are asked for the approximate number of cases on November 24, 2014.
Since, the date is November 24, 2014, t = 207.
Thus, the number of cases, C, can be calculated by putting t = 207, in the exponential equation, [tex]C(t) = 188.59e^{0.024t}[/tex].
[tex]C(207) = 188.59e^{0.024*207}\\\Rightarrow C(207) = 188.59e^{4.968}\\\Rightarrow C(207) = 188.59*143.739121458\\\Rightarrow C(207) = 27107.76[/tex]
Thus, the number of cases on November 24, 2014, was approximately 27107.76.
(c) We are asked to find C(92).
This can be found by putting t = 92, in the exponential equation, [tex]C(t) = 188.59e^{0.024t}[/tex].
[tex]C(92) = 188.59e^{0.024*92}\\\Rightarrow C(92) = 188.59e^{2.208}\\\Rightarrow C(92) = 188.59*9.09750317953\\\Rightarrow C(92) = 1715.70[/tex]
Thus, C(92) = 1715.70.
This means that on the 92nd day from May 1, 2014, the number of Ebola cases in Africa was approximately 1715.70.
The complete question is:
"The spread of the Ebola virus in Africa in 2014 could be modeled by [tex]C(t) = 188.59e^{0.024t}[/tex] where C represents the number of cases and t represents the number of days since May 1, 2014. (source: http://www.geert.io/exponential-growth-of-ebola.html)

To test the effectiveness of a drug proposed to relieve symptoms of depression, psychiatrists recruited volunteers for clinical tests. All of the volunteers were diagnosed with symptoms of depression. The psychiatrists provided the drug to first group and a sugar pill to the second group. In the description of the above situation, determine the control group.
Answer:
The control group is the group that takes the sugar pill
Step-by-step explanation:
In drug testing, to determine the efficacy of a drug, different groups of experimental subjects are recruited, one group is given the drug to be tested (treatment group) while another group is given a placebo.
A placebo is a fake version of the drug to be tested that does not have any therapeutic effect on the test subjects that receive it. In this case, the control group receives the placebo which is the sugar pill. They serve as the baseline of measurement when the outcome of the effect of the drug testing is done. The groups that received the actual drugs are compared against the groups that received the hoax treatment, and any change occuring in the test subjects become the changes occuring as a result of the test drug used, when the observations on the control group has been ruled out.

PLS Help While on a strenuous hike, Tara recorded her distance from the peak of the mountain at two different time intervals. The table shows the two pieces of data she collected.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of a line representing the relation between distance from the peak of the mountain and time is,
h = mt + b
Here, m = Slope of the line
b = y-intercept
Since, slope of the line passing through two points [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex] is given by,
m = [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
From the table attached,
Slope of the line passing through (2, 2600) and (5, 950) will be,
m = [tex]\frac{2600-950}{2-5}[/tex]
= -550
Therefore, equation of the line will be,
h = -550t + b
Since, point (2, 2600) lies on this line,
2600 = -550(2) + b
b = 2600 + 1100
b = 3700
So, equation of the line will be,
h = -550t + 3700
Input - output values for this line,
t 2 4 6
h 2600 1500 400
Now we can plot these points and get the graph of the line.
The 2010 U.S. Census asked every household to report information on each person living there. Suppose for a sample of 30 households selected, the number of persons living in each was reported as follows. 2 3 1 2 6 4 2 1 5 3 2 3 1 2 2 1 3 1 2 2 4 2 1 2 9 3 2 1 1 3 Compute the mean, median, mode, range, lower and upper quartiles, and interquartile range for these data. (Round the mean to 2 decimal places.) Mean
Answer:
[tex]\bar x =2.53[/tex] -- Mean
[tex]Median= 2[/tex]
[tex]Mode = 2[/tex]
[tex]Range = 8[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = 1[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 3[/tex]
[tex]IQR = 2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
n = 30
Data: 2 3 1 2 6 4 2 1 5 3 2 3 1 2 2 1 3 1 2 2 4 2 1 2 9 3 2 1 1 3
Solving (a): The mean
This is calculated as:
[tex]\bar x =\frac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]
[tex]\bar x =\frac{2 +3 +1 +2 +6 +4 +2 +1 +5 +3 +2 +3+ 1+ 2 +2 +1 +3 +1 +2 +2 +4 +2 +1 +2 +9 +3 +2 +1 +1 +3}{30}[/tex]
[tex]\bar x =\frac{76}{30}[/tex]
[tex]\bar x =2.53[/tex]
Solving (b): The median
First arrange the given data
Arranged: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 4 5 6 9
[tex]Median =\frac{1}{2}(n+1)[/tex]
[tex]Median =\frac{1}{2}(30+1)[/tex]
[tex]Median =\frac{1}{2}(31)[/tex]
[tex]Median = 15.5th[/tex]
This implies that the median is the average of the 15th and 16th item
[tex]Median = \frac{2+2}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Median = \frac{4}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Median= 2[/tex]
Solving (c): The mode
From the given data; 2 has the highest frequency of 11.
So,
[tex]Mode = 2[/tex]
Solving (d): The Range
[tex]Range = Highest\ Data - Lowest\ Data[/tex]
The highest is 9 and the lowest is 1,
So:
[tex]Range = 9 - 1[/tex]
[tex]Range = 8[/tex]
Solving (e): Lower (Q1) and Upper (Q3) quartile.
Q1 is calculated as:
[tex]Q_1 = \frac{1}{4}(n+1)th[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = \frac{1}{4}(30+1)th[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = \frac{1}{4}(31)th[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = 7.75th[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = 8th\ item[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = 1[/tex] -- from the arranged data
Q3 is calculated as:
[tex]Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}(n+1)th[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}(30+1)th[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}(31)th[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 23.25th[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 23rd\ item[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 3[/tex] -- from the arranged data
Solving (f): The interquartile range (IQR)
[tex]IQR = Q_3 - Q_1[/tex]
[tex]IQR = 3-1[/tex]
[tex]IQR = 2[/tex]

What is the solution to the equation?The allocation of weights to the important variables that produce the calculation's optimum is referred to as a direct consequence.
Ms. Gonzalez buys folders for her office. She buys 4 small folders for every 1 large folder. She buys 15 folders in all. Small folders cost $0.75, and large folders cost $1.25.
Let 'x' be the number of small folders and 'y' be the large folders. Then the equations are given as,
x + y = 15 ...1
y = 4x ...2
From equations 1 and 2, then we have
x + 4x = 15
5x = 15
x = 3
Then the value of 'y' is given as,
3 + y = 15
y = 12
The cost of the small folder is given as,
⇒ $0.75 × 3
⇒ $2.25
The cost of the large folder is given as,
⇒ $1.25 × 12
⇒ $15
The difference is given as,
⇒ $15 - $2.25
⇒ $12.75
The amount of money that Ms. Gonzalez spends on small folders than large folders will be $12.75.

Write the equation in slope-intercept form.
#First find the gradient first, remember that the formula of equation of the line is y = mx + c and gradient's symbol is m
y = ½x - 3
#so the gradient is ½, now u can find the equation of the lime.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 4 = ½(x - 6)
y - 4 = ½x - 3

Answer:
y = (1/4) 2^x
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
y = a * x^n is the general equation. Let's see what that means.
Solution
Solve for x
t_12 = a x^12
1024 = a x^12
t_8 = a x^8
64 = a x^8
Now divide the two equations.
1024/64 = a x^12/a x^8 Cancel out the as
1024 / 64 = x^12 / x^8
16 = x^(12 - 8)
16 = x^4 Take the 4th root of both sides.
[tex]\sqrt[4]{x^4}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt[4]{16}[/tex]
x = 2
Go back and solve for a
y_12 = a x^12
1024 = a 2^12
1024 = a 4096 Divide by 4096
1024 / 4096 = a
a = 1/4
Problem 7
a) First of negative numbers are probably not a good idea. It means that the population is going to decrease. That's not what will happen if you take care of the fruit flies.
So for the domain, 0 is a good starting point.
That will give you 100 flies on day 0. That's how many you bought.
I'm not a biologist so I have no idea in the world how long a fruit fly will live even with the best of care. I'm going to try 60 days and see what happens.
y = 100 * 1.05 ^60
y = 100 * 18.68
y = 1868
Is this number reasonable? Even with the biggest olive jar you can find, and the best care, I don't think that number is realistic. It's too large. Eventually all will die of disease because they are living in their own waste. So Let's try 20 days
y = 100 * 1.05^20
y = 100 * 2.65
y = 265
That's a lot more reasonable. So for convenience sake let us say that 265 flies could live for 20 days
So to answer the question
The domain would be 0 to 20
The range would be 100 to 265
b)
2 weeks = 2*7 days
2 weeks = 14 days
y = 100 * 1.05^14
y = 100 * 1.98
y = 198 fruit flies.

To keep in shape, Vincent exercises at a track near his home. He requires 40 minutes to do 4 laps running and 7 laps walking. In contrast, he requires 18 minutes to do 2 laps running and 3 laps walking. Assuming he maintains a consistent pace while running and while walking, how long does Vincent take to complete a lap at each pace?
Answer:
He completes a lap running in 3 minutes, and walking in 4 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be solved by a system of equations.
I am going to say that:
x is the time needed to complete a lap running.
y is the time needed to complete a lap walking.
He requires 40 minutes to do 4 laps running and 7 laps walking.
This means that:
[tex]4x + 7y = 40[/tex]
[tex]4x = 40 - 7y[/tex]
He requires 18 minutes to do 2 laps running and 3 laps walking.
This means that
[tex]2x + 3y = 18[/tex]
Multipluing everything by 2
[tex]4x + 6y = 36[/tex]
Since [tex]4x = 40 - 7y[/tex]
[tex]40 - 7y + 6y = 36[/tex]
[tex]y = 4[/tex]
And
[tex]4x = 40 - 7y[/tex]
[tex]4x = 40 - 7*4[/tex]
[tex]4x = 12[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{12}{4}[/tex]
[tex]x = 3[/tex]
He completes a lap running in 3 minutes, and walking in 4 minutes.
