Two different chemotherapy regimens can be used for the treatment of breast cancer. the treatment with doxorubicin is known to show a remission rate 40% of the time. this treatment costs $1,000. the other treatment, with docetaxel, shows a remission rate 25% of the time and costs $850. the two treatment plans are as follows: plan a: treatment with doxorubicin—if not effective, treatment with docetaxel. plan b: treatment with docetaxel—if not effective, treatment with doxorubicin. if you are the patient, which statement is the best choice? a. based on the probability of the remission rate plan a should be selected over plan b. b. based on the probability of the remission rate plan b should be selected over plan a c. based on the first treatment cost alone plan a should be selected over plan b. d. based on the overall treatment cost plan b should be selected over plan a. e. based on the probability of survival rate and the cost of treatment, both plans are equivalent, so either can be selected.

After a dreary day of rain, the sun peeks through the clouds and a rainbow forms. you notice the rainbow is the shape of a parabola. the equation for this parabola is y = -x2 + 36. graph of a parabola opening down at the vertex 0 comma 36 crossing the x–axis at negative 6 comma 0 and 6 comma 0. in the distance, an airplane is taking off. as it ascends during take-off, it makes a slanted line that cuts through the rainbow at two points. create a table of at least four values for the function that includes two points of intersection between the airplane and the rainbow. analyze the two functions. answer the following reflection questions in complete sentences. what is the domain and range of the rainbow? explain what the domain and range represent. do all of the values make sense in this situation? why or why not? what are the x- and y-intercepts of the rainbow? explain what each intercept represents. is the linear function you created with your table positive or negative? explain. what are the solutions or solution to the system of equations created? explain what it or they represent. create your own piecewise function with at least two functions. explain, using complete sentences, the steps for graphing the function. graph the function by hand or using a graphing software of your choice (remember to submit the graph).
