A1992 poll conducted by the university of montana classified respondents by gender and political party, as shown in the table below. we wonder if there is an association between gender and party affiliation.

( democrat / republican / independent )
male= ( 36 / 45 / 24 )
female= ( 48 / [[33]] / 16 )

what is the correct expected value for the highlighted cell?

a. 19.2

b. 37.5

c. 40.5

d. 40.3

linearly: 8560 bacteria

exponentially: approximately 75233 bacteria

step-by-step explanation:

assuming it is not exponential (we would have some really complicated logarithms), let's say it is linear. then, after 5 hours, it increased by 1200 bacteria, so every hour it increases by 240 bacteria. this means that after 19 hours, we get 19 * 240 + 4000 bacteria or 3800 + 760 + 4000 = 7800 + 760 = 8560 bacteria.

because it says round your answer, i will do this exponentially (with a calculator, of course). first, we need to find how much it multiplies by every hour, by taking the 5th root of 52/40 or 13/10. this is approximately 0.167. we still need to add 1 to this, because we are multiplying by that number, not adding that amount of the number. now, we just calculate 4000 * (1.167)^19. use a calculator to get approximately 75232.6, or 75233.

what is the question?
