Concept explainers
Blood alcohol content (BAC) is measured in grams of alcohol per deciliter of blood. For instance, a BAC reading of 0.08% (a level that is considered legally intoxicated in most states) means that one deciliter of the person’s blood contains 0.08 gram of alcohol. A toxicologist recorded the times elapsed, in hours, until the blood alcohol levels of eight adults who had consumed various amounts of alcohol were less than 0.005%. The results are given in the table.
a. Find the regression equation and linear
b. Use the equation to predict the time it would take for a person with a BAC of 0.06% to reach a BAC level of less than 0.005. Round to the nearest tenth.

Cadmium, a heavy metal, is toxic to ani- mals. Mushrooms, however, are able to absorb and accumulate cad- mium at high concentrations. The Czech and Slovak governments have set a safety limit for cadmium in dry vegetables at 0.5 part per million (ppm). M. Melgar et al. measured the cadmium levels in a random sample of the edible mushroom Boletus pinicola and pub- lished the results in the paper "Influence of Some Factors in Toxicity and Accumulation of Cd from Edible Wild Macrofungi in NW Spain" (Journal of Environmental Science and Health, Vol. B33(4), pp. 439- 455).
