The University of Washington claims that it graduates 85% of its basketball players. An NCAA investigation about the graduation rate finds that of the last 20 players entering the program only 11 graduated. If the university’s claim is correct, the number of players among the 20 should follow the binomial distribution B(20, 0.85). a) What is the probability that 11 out of the 20 would graduate? Write how the binomial formula is used to calculate the probability.
( 0.74%) ?
b) To what extent do you think the university’s claim is true?
( Very low extent) ?
c) What is the probability that all 20 athletes would have graduated? Write how the binomial formula is used to calculate the probability.
( 3.86%) ?
d) Find the mean and standard deviation of the number of graduates out of the 20 players.

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.
