$(6b-6)(-12)=(-4)(3b+27)$

$-12(6b-6)=-4(3b+27)$

$-72b+72=-12b-108$

$-72b=-12b-180$

$-60b=-180$

$b=3$

Exercise 1 An ejidal association wishes to determine the distribution for the three different crops that it can plant for the next season on its available 900 hectares. Information on the total available and how many resources are required for each hectare of cultivation is shown in the following tables: Total available resource Water 15,000 m3 Fertilizer 5,000 kg Labor 125 day laborers Requirements per cultivated hectare Corn Soybeans Wheat Water 15 25 20 Fertilizer 5 8 7 Labor** 1/8 1/5 1/4 *The data in fraction means that with one day laborer it will be possible to care for 8, 5 and 4 hectares respectively. * Sales of crops 1 and 3, according to information from the Department of Agriculture, are guaranteed and exceed the capacity of the cooperative. However, soybeans must be limited to a maximum of 150 hectares. On the other hand, the profits for each hectare of crop obtained are estimated at: $7,500 for corn, $8,500 for soybeans and $8,000 for wheat. The objectives are to determine: • How many hectares of each crop must be allocated so that the profit is maximum. R= • The estimated profits for the ejidal cooperative in the next growing season. R=

We plan to test whether the mean mRNA expression level differs between two strains of yeast, for each of 8,000 genes. We will measure the expression levels of each gene, in n samples of strain 1 and m samples of strain 2. We plan to compute a P-value for each gene, using an unpaired two-sample t-test for each gene (the particular type of test does not matter). a) What are the null hypotheses in these tests (in words)? [2] b) If, in fact, the two strains are identical, how many of these tests do we expect to produce a P-value exceeding 1/4? [2]

Exercise The temperature T in degrees Celsius of a chemical reaction is given as a function of time t, expressed in minutes, by the function defined on ¿ by: T (t )=(20 t +10)e−0.5t. 1) What is the initial temperature? 2) Show that T' (t )=(−10 t +15)e−0 .5t. 3) Study the sign of T' (t ), then draw up the table of variations of T . We do not ask for the limit of T in +∞. 4) What is the maximum temperature reached by the reaction chemical. We will give an approximate value to within 10−2. 5) After how long does the temperature T go back down to its initial value? We will give an approximate value of this time in minutes and seconds.
