Suppose the length, in words, of the essays written for a contest are normally distributed and have a known population standard deviation of 325 words and an unknown population mean. A random sample of 25 essays is taken and gives a sample mean of 1640 words. Identify the parameters needed to calculate a confidence interval at the 98% confidence level. Then find the confidence interval.

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.
