Hye ryung is the president of the local chapter of the american medical students association (amsa). she is organizing local outreach and informational meetings. at her first meeting there are five people present (including herself). every month after that her group grows by 5 people. a. how many members are in the group after 6 months? b. the logistics of hosting and feeding her group at meetings was more complicated than expected. the cost of feeding 5 people at her first meeting was $30, for 10 people it was $35, for 15 it was $45, and after 6 months all of the costs had added up to $100. write a function to model the cost with the number of people attending meetings. c. what connections can you make between the linear growth of the group’s membership and the increasing costs of running meetings?

Suppose that an airline uses a seat width of 16.516.5 in. assume men have hip breadths that are normally distributed with a mean of 14.414.4 in. and a standard deviation of 0.90.9 in. complete parts (a) through (c) below. (a) find the probability that if an individual man is randomly selected, his hip breadth will be greater than 16.516.5 in. the probability is nothing. (round to four decimal places as needed.)

Suppose that 3% of all athletes are using the endurance-enhancing hormone epo (you should be able to simply compute the percentage of all athletes that are not using epo). for our purposes, a “positive” test result is one that indicates presence of epo in an athlete’s bloodstream. the probability of a positive result, given the presence of epo is .99. the probability of a negative result, when epo is not present, is .90. what is the probability that a randomly selected athlete tests positive for epo? 0.0297
