A 72-year-old woman presents for a routine visit and medication refill. During her visit, she mentions that her right big toe has been bothering her. It is painful for her to wear shoes and cut her nails. On exam, a thickened, yellowed toenail is noted, affecting the distal two-thirds of the nail bed of her right great toe. The surrounding skin otherwise appears normal. A potassium hydroxide preparation is taken immediately, and hyphae are noted. A fungal culture is sent, and oral terbinafine is prescribed. Which of the following is the mechanism of action for this treatment? Binds to membrane sterols and increases membrane permeability Impairs fungal mitoses by disrupting mitotic spindle formation in fungi Inhibits 14-alpha-demethylase, preventing conversion of lanosterol into ergosterol, which is needed to build fungal cell walls Inhibits the enzyme squalene epoxidase, preventing synthesis of ergosterol, which is needed to build fungal cell walls

A simple random sample of size n is drawn from a population that is normally distributed. The sample mean, x, is found to be 108, and the sample standard deviation, s, is found to be 10. (a) Construct an 80% confidence interval about u if the sample size, n, is 13. (b) Construct an 80% confidence interval about µ if the sample size, n, is 28. (c) Construct a 95% confidence interval about µ if the sample size, n, is 13. (d) Could we have computed the confidence intervals in parts (a)-(c) if the population had not been normally distributed?

2) (11.2) For $f(x) = \begin{cases} 1, & -2 < x < 0 \\ x, & 0 \le x < 2 \end{cases}$, find the Fourier series of $f(x)$. Give the number to which the Fourier series converges at the discontinuity. 3) (11.2/11.3) For $f(x) = x^2$, find the Fourier series of $f(x)$ on the interval $[-\pi, \pi]$ by using the appropriate cosine or sine series. 4) (11.3) For $f(x) = \pi - x$ on $[0, \pi]$, find the Fourier sine series of $f(x)$. 5) (12.1) Use separation of variables to find product solutions of the partial differential equation, $\frac{\partial u}{\partial y} + xy \frac{\partial u}{\partial x} = 0$.

Toxoplasmosis is a disease caused by a single-celled parasite called Toxoplasma gondii. Humans can become infected with this parasite unknowingly by consuming raw meat, accidentally ingesting cat feces, or by ingesting contaminated soil. Although healthy human beings may not show any symptoms, a pregnant woman who has recently been infected can pass the disease to her fetus. Tonya is trying to get pregnant and is concerned that she might have this disease. What type of antibody would be positive in a blood test if she has recently become infected with Toxoplasma (i.e., has an active infection)? O IgG O IgM O IgA O IgE

(b) Let $T: M_2(\mathbb{R}) \to \mathbb{R}^2$ be defined by $T \left( \begin{pmatrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{pmatrix} \right) = \begin{pmatrix} a+b \\ c-d \end{pmatrix}$. Show that $T$ is a linear transformation. Find a basis for $ker(T)$ and state the dimension of $ker(T)$. Use the Rank Theorem for linear transformations to find the dimension of $ker(T)$, without finding a basis for $ker(T)$. Explain your reasoning carefully. (c) Let $T: \mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}^2$ be a linear transformation. What is the image under $T$ of a straight line through the origin? Explain your answer.
