A new test is developed to test for organic matter in soil samples, giving "positive" or "negative" results to indicate that a sample does or does not contain organic matter.
For a soil sample that contains organic matter, the test will give a positive result 95% of the time and a negative result (false negative) 5% of the time. For a soil sample that does not contain organic matter, the test will give a positive result (false positive) 20% of the time and a negative result 80% of the time.
A study included a population of 1,000 soil samples, and 70% of those studied where known to contain organic matter.
Fill in the missing values in the table and statement below. If necessary, round the percentage to one decimal place.

Acolony contains 1500 bacteria. the population increases at a rate of 115% each hour. if x represents the number of hours elapsed, which function represents the scenario? f(x) = 1500(1.15)" f(x) = 1500(115) f(x) = 1500(2.15) f(x) = 1500(215)
