Solution

The answer is: True.

Explanation:

  • Endotoxins are a specific type of toxin associated with the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. They are part of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) complex and are released when the bacterial cell wall is disrupted.
  • Gram-positive bacteria do not produce endotoxins. Instead, they may produce exotoxins, which are different in structure and function from endotoxins.
  • Therefore, the statement that endotoxins are produced only by Gram-negative bacteria is true.

The most commonly accepted tradition is that college students will study 2 hours outside of class for every hour in class. This means 30 hours/week for a full-time student taking 15 units (hours of class). An educator suspects that this figure is different now than in the past. - Claim 1: The average time full-time college students study outside of class per week is 30 hours. - Claim 2: The average time full-time college students study outside of class per week is not 30 hours. To substantiate her claim, the educator randomly selects 1,500 college students and finds that they study an average of 27 hours per week with a standard deviation of 1.7 hours. In order to assess the evidence, we need to determine: how likely it is to observe a mean number of hours of studying outside of class per week that is different from 30 hours per week. how likely it is in a random sample of 1,500 students to observe that the average number of hours spent per week studying outside of class is at most 27 hours, or at least 33 hours. how likely it is in a random sample of 1,500 students to observe that the mean amount of hours of studying outside of class per week is 27 hours or less. how likely it is in a random sample of 1,500 students to observe students studying an average of at most 27 or at least 33 hours per week outside of class, if the mean number is actually 30 hours per week. how likely it is that the mean number of hours per week spent by students studying outside of class is 30.

A bicycle racer sprints near the end of a race to clinch a victory. The racer has an initial velocity of 10.95 m / s and accelerates at the rate of 0.55 m / s^2 for 5.5 s to accomplish this. What is his final velocity, in meters per second, after this period of acceleration? The racer continues at this velocity to the finish line. If he was 325 m from the finish line when he started to accelerate, how much less time did it take him to finish than if he had not accelerated? One other racer was 6.5 m ahead when the winner started to accelerate, but was too tired to speed up and traveled at 11.6 m / s until the finish line. If the winner continues to cycle at the same speed after crossing the finish line (to celebrate his victory), how far ahead of the loser will the winner be, in meters, when the loser finishes?
