- Cholesterol Cholesterol in human blood is necessary, but too much can lead to health problems. There are three main types of cholesterol: HDL (high-density lipoproteins), LDL (low-density lipoproteins), and VLDL (very low-density lipoproteins). HDL is considered “good” cholesterol; LDL and VLDL are considered “bad” cholesterol. A standard fasting cholesterol blood test measures total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. These numbers are used to estimate LDL and VLDL, which are difficult to measure directly. Your doctor recommends that your combined LDL/VLDL cholesterol level be less than 130 milligrams per deciliter, your HDL cholesterol level be at least 60 milligrams per deciliter, and your total cholesterol level be no more than 200 milligrams per deciliter. (a) Write a system of linear inequalities for the recommended cholesterol levels. Let x represent the HDL cholesterol level, and let y represent the combined LDL VLDL cholesterol level. (b) Graph the system of inequalities from part (a). Label any vertices of the solution region. (c) Is the following set of cholesterol levels within the recommendations? Explain. LDL/VLDL: 120 milligrams per deciliter HDL: 90 milligrams per deciliter Total: 210 milligrams per deciliter (d) Give an example of cholesterol levels in which the LDL/VLDL cholesterol level is too high but the HDL cholesterol level is acceptable. (e) Another recommendation is that the ratio of total cholesterol to HDL cholesterol be less than 4 (that is, less than 4 to 1). Identify a point in the solution region from part (b) that meets this recommendation, and explain why it meets the recommendation.arrow_forwardWhat is Windows Server-Client networking model?

The level of natural gas consumption is influenced by a variety of factors. You decided that the most important factors include local weather, the state of the national and the local economies, the purchasing power of the dollar (because at least some of the natural gas is imported), and the prices for other commodities. The following variables have been identified and recorded on a quarterly basis (the data cover the period 1997Q1 through 2008Q3, with all data measured quarterly): GASCONS: consumption of natural gas in DC metro area (million cubic feet) AVETEMP: average temperature for the period in the DC metro area GDP: annualized percentage change in GDP UNEMP: percentage unemployment in the DC metro area GAS_PRICE: price of natural gas ($/100 cubic feet) DOLLAR: value index for the U.S. dollar relative to a basket of international…arrow_forward

But sometimes when we do get what we want, we realize that it’s not what we really want. That’s because our wants don’t always match our needs. The solution to this problem is to try to understand and satisfy our real needs. Psychology is the scientific study of the human mind and human and animal behavior. A lot of psychological research has been done about human needs and how they should be satisfied. Studies have shown that humans have basic needs that must be consistently met. Studies have also shown that there is an order of importance in which these needs must be satisfied. An individual’s basic functional needs must be satisfied before he or she can go on and meet other more creative and self-fulfilling needs. Abraham Harold Maslow (1908–1970) was an important psychologist who became famous for his studies regarding human needs and wants. He wrote two major works, Motivation and…arrow_forward

- Chapter 2, Section 6, Exercise 214 Runs and Wins in BaseballMajor League Baseball is split into two leagues, the National League (NL) and the American League (AL). The main difference between the two leagues is that pitchers take at bats in the National League but not in the American League. Two of the variables in the BaseballHits dataset are the number of wins and the number of runs scored during the season. The dataset consists of values for each variable from all 30 MLB teams. From these data we calculate the regression line: Wins^=34.85+0.070(Runs). Click here for the dataset associated with this question. (a) Which is the response variable in this regression line?

(2007). Relation of adolescent video game play to time spent in other activities. Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 161(7), 684–689.] Cummings and Vandewater measured the time adolescents spent playing video games and the time they spent doing other activities, such as interacting with family and friends, reading or doing homework, or playing sports.
