Plants convert carbon dioxide (CO₂) in the atmosphere, along with water and energy from sunlight, into the energy they need for growth and reproduction. Experiments were performed under normal atmospheric air conditions and in air with enriched CO₂ concen- trations to determine the effect on plant growth. The plants were given the same amount of water and light for a four-week period. The following table gives the plant growths in grams: Normal Air: 4.67 4.21 2.18 3.91 4.09 5.24 2.94 4.71 4.04 5.79 3.80 4.38 Enriched Air: 5.04 4.52 6.18 7.01 4.36 1.81 6.22 5.70 On the basis of these data, we want to determine the effect of CO2-enriched atmosphere on plant growth. Let X be the plant growth in enriched air and Y be the plant growth in normal air. Assume X, Y are normal with mean x, y respectively, but we don't know their variances. µx (i) Construct a 95% (two-sided) confidence interval for px - y by discarding the last four data from the larger sample and then pair up the rest of the two…

A particularly virulent form of human-adapted mad cow disease sweeps across the world transforming most of the world into ravenous zombies. The zombie population obeys the law of uninhibited growth. A small group of survivors find an uninfected haven. On the first day in the safe haven, 15 people ate contaminated hamburger and turned into zombies. Ten days later, there are 300 zombies. What is the size of the zombie population after 16 days? Use A(t)=A0e^kt, where t represents the number of days that have passed since the first zombies appeared. Show your work.
