A ball is oscillating on an ideal spring with an amplitude of 8.3 cm and a period of 4.6 s. Write an expression for its position, x, as a function of time t, if x is equal to 8.3 cm at t = 0.0 s. Use the cosine function.
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

A package is oscillating on a spring scale with a period of 4.60 s. At time t = 0.00 s the package has zero speed and is at x = 8.30 cm. At what time after t = 0.00 s will the package first be at x = 4.15 cm?
 
  A) 0.575 s
  B) 0.767 s
  C) 1.15 s
  D) 1.30 s
  E) 1.53 s

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
