An environmentalist monitored the water quality of a river in city Xby measuring the conductivity of the river monthly. The conductivity of a water body is an early indicator of the water quality. Owing to implementation of activities which were harmful to the nature such as an oil spill, the conductivity in µS/cm of the river decreased. However, a continuous cleaning up plan had been carried out for the river from January until April 2020 and the conductivity measurement for the months had improved as follows: a1, a2, a3, a4, a5…, an 3, 12, 27, 48, 75, …., an 1. Let an represents the conductivity for nmonths since January 2020. By using n in the formula, determine the formula to represent the conductivity sequence, an. 2.What is the estimated conductivity for January 2021? 3. By assuming bn-1= an - an-1, the monthly improvement of conductivity can be represented by the following sequence. Based on the given sequence, determine bn. b1, b2, b3, b4, …, bn = (12-3), (27-12), (48-27),…

Murder was committed in an air-conditioned laboratory. Dr. Quincy, the medical examiner, was summoned to the scene of the crime. One of the first things he did was to take the temperature of the corpse. At 9:23 PM, he recorded the temperature to be 20.1oC and at 9:53 Pm to be 18.7oC. He further observed that the thermostat of the air-conditioning unit was set at 16oC. After gathering all pertinent data and analyzing them for sometime, he submitted a preliminary report stating that the victim was murdered between 7 PM and 8 PM. Was Dr. Quincy's report correct? At what approximate time did the victim die? Assume that the normal body temperature of a human being, alive and well, is 37oC.

The Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) for a cell phone measures the amount of radio frequency (RF) energy absorbed by the user's body when using the handset. Every cell phone emits RF energy. Different phone models have different SAR measures. To receive certification from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for sale in the United States, the SAR level for a cell phone must be no more than 1.5 watts per kilogram. A sample of 47 models was tested and the average of their Specific Absorption Rates (SARs) was found to be 1.18 watts per kilogram. Assume that the population standard deviation is 0.25 watts per kilogram. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the mean of the SARs for cell phones that received certification from FCC. Margin of error (if applicable): (Round the answer to 2 decimal places)

Life-saving drug: Penicillin is produced by the Penicillin fungus, which is grown in a broth whose sugar content must be carefully controlled. Several samples of broth were taken on three successive days, and the amount of dissolved sugars, in milligrams per milliliter, was measured on each sample. The results were as follows.
Breast feeding sometimes results in a temporary loss of bone mass as calcium is depleted in the mother's body to provide for milk production. An investigation gave the following data on total body bone mineral content (g) for a sample of mothers both during breast feeding (B) and in the postweaning period (P).

State and test the appropriate hypotheses using a significance level of 0.05. (Use a statistical computer package to calculate the P-value. Use ?P − ?B. Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to three decimal places.) t = df = P-value = Conclusion Fail to reject H0. OR Reject H0.
In general, when people diet they typically lose 10 lbs. (?σ = 2). A random sample of 16 people on the keto diet lost 15 lbs. Do people on the keto diet lose more or less weight than people on diets in general? -On average, weight loss in the keto diet sample does not differ from weight loss in the population of dieters in general. (H0: X-bar = Mu)) -Weight loss in the keto diet sample does differ from weight loss in the population of dieters in general (H1: X-bar does not equal Mu) critical value: +/- 1.96 Question: What is the test statistic? Question: What is your decision? a) Not enough information to decide b) Reject the null hypothesis b) Fail to reject the null hypothesis
