Use composition to determine if (x) or h(x) is the inverse of f(x) for the limited domain x2-1.

The biologist has a second culture to examine. she knows that the population of the culture doubles every 15 minutes. after 1 hour and 15 minutes, her assistant found that 80,000 bacteria were present. a) what was the size of the initial population? b) predict the size of the culture at t=3 hours. what was the size of the population at 40 minutes? explain and justify your answers. c) create a graph of the population as a function of time. find an equation that can be used to predict the size of the population at any time t. d) examine the rate at which the bacteria culture is growing. how fast is the culture growing after 1 hour? after 1.5 hours? after 2 hours? use a time interval of h = 0.01 hours to estimate these rates. interpret these rates in terms of the context of the problem situation. how do these three rates compare?

The survey of study habits and attitudes (ssha) is a psychological test that measures the motivation, attitude toward school, and study habits of students, scores range from 0 to 200. the mean score for u.s. college students is about 115, and the standard deviation is about 30. a teacher who suspects that older students have better attitudes toward school gives the ssha to 55 students who are at least 30 years of age. the mean score is 113.2. assume the population standard deviation is 30 for older students what is the margin of error for a 95% confidence interval for the population mean score for a. older students? b. compute the 95% confidence interval for the population mean score for older students. c. compute the 99% confidence interval for the population mean score for older students. d. compute the 88% confidence interval for the population mean score for older students.
