1 mL of a bacteriophage suspension is mixed with 20 mL of a bacterial culture and 50% of the phages adsorb. We know that the bacteriophage suspension had a concentration of 1x1010 viruses per mL, and the bacterial culture had a concentration of 3x108 bacteria per mL. A. What fraction of the cells is uninfected? B, What fraction of the cells is single infected?

The National Hurricane Center provides data that list the number of large (category 3, 4, or 5) hurricanes that have struck the United States, by decade, from 1851-2020. Is there sufficient evidence that the number of large hurricanes have remained constant (per decade)? What are the degrees of freedom?
