Answer to Question 1

d
RATIONALE: In a nonlinear problem, the rate of change of the objective function with respect to the right-hand side of a constraint is given by the Lagrangian multiplier.

Answer to Question 2

c
RATIONALE: The three quantities are related as SST = SSR + SSE. Substituting the values, we get SSR=18.43.

For about 100 years, scientists thought that peptic ulcers were caused by stress, spicy food, and alcohol. Later, researchers added stomach acid to the list of causes and began treating ulcers with antacids. Now it is known that peptic ulcers are predominantly caused by Helicobacter pylori, a spiral-shaped bacterium that normally exist in the stomach.
