belinda wants to invest $1000. the table below shows the value of her investment under two different options for three different years:

number of years 1 2 3

option 1 (amount in dollars) 1100 1210 1331

option 2 (amount in dollars) 1100 1200 1300

part a: what type of function, linear or exponential, can be used to describe the value of the investment after a fixed number of years using option 1 and option 2? explain your answer. (2 points)

part b: write one function for each option to describe the value of the investment f(n), in dollars, after n years. (4 points)

part c: belinda wants to invest in an option that would to increase her investment value by the greatest amount in 20 years. will there be any significant difference in the value of belinda's investment after 20 years if she uses option 2 over option 1? explain your answer, and show the investment value after 20 years for each option.

Overproduction of uric acid in the body can be an indication of cell breakdown. this may be an advance indication of illness such as gout, leukemia, or lymphoma.† over a period of months, an adult male patient has taken nine blood tests for uric acid. the mean concentration was x = 5.35 mg/dl. the distribution of uric acid in healthy adult males can be assumed to be normal, with σ = 1.87 mg/dl. (a) find a 95% confidence interval for the population mean concentration of uric acid in this patient's blood. what is the margin of error? (round your answers to two decimal places.) lower limit upper limit margin of error (b) what conditions are necessary for your calculations? (select all that apply.) σ is unknown n is large σ is known normal distribution of uric acid uniform distribution of uric acid (c) interpret your results in the context of this problem. there is not enough information to make an interpretation. the probability that this interval contains the true average uric acid level for this patient is 0.05. the probability that this interval contains the true average uric acid level for this patient is 0.95. there is a 95% chance that the confidence interval is one of the intervals containing the population average uric acid level for this patient. there is a 5% chance that the confidence interval is one of the intervals containing the population average uric acid level for this patient. (d) find the sample size necessary for a 95% confidence level with maximal margin of error e = 1.10 for the mean concentration of uric acid in this patient's blood. (round your answer up to the nearest whole number.) blood tests
