As a clue to the amount of organic waste in Lake Macatawa (see Example 7.1-4), a count was made of the number of bacteria colonies in 100 milliliters of water. The number of colonies, in hundreds, for \(n = 30\) samples of water from the east basin yielded \(\begin{array}{rrrrrrrrrr} 93 & 140 & 8 & 1

A college student has two options for meals: eating at the dining hall for $6 per meal, or eating a Cup O Soup for $1.50 per meal. Her weekly food budget is $60. a. Draw the budget constraint showing the trade- off between dining hall meals and Cups O Soup. Assuming that she spends equal amounts on b
