The weight of bags of coffee beans at the grocery store follows a Normal distribution with a mean of μ = 7 ounces and a standard deviation of σ = 2 ounces. Suppose we pick four bags of coffee beans at random from the shelf and find their total weight, W. Which of the following statements describes the random variable W?

A. The random variable W is Normal, with a mean of seven ounces and a standard deviation of two ounces.
B. The random variable W is Normal, with a mean of 28 ounces and a standard deviation of 16 ounces.
C. The random variable W is Normal, with a mean of 28 ounces and a standard deviation of four ounces.
D. The random variable W is binomial, with a mean of 28 ounces and a standard deviation of four ounces.
E. The random variable W is binomial, with a mean of seven ounces and a standard deviation of two ounces.

Browning labs is testing a new growth inhibitor for a certain type of bacteria. the bacteria naturally grows exponentially each hour at a rate of 6.2%. the researchers know that the inhibitor will make the growth rate of the bacteria less than or equal to its natural growth rate. the sample currently contains 100 bacteria.the container holding the sample can hold only 300 bacteria, after which the sample will no longer grow. however, the researchers are increasing the size of the container at a constant rate allowing the container to hold 100 more bacteria each hour. they would like to determine the possible number of bacteria in the container over time.create a system of inequalities to model the situation above, and use it to determine how many of the solutions are viable.
