Use this information for the next three questions. A hospital patient suffering from a chronic internal infection caused by a bacterium was treated with daily injections of the antibiotic streptomycin over a period of 12 days. The following graph shows the results. Graph Representing Antibiotic Treatment Results for Chronic Internal Infections Image Description A graph of the results of antibiotic treatment for a chronic internal infection over a 12-day period. The graph shows two lines: Bacteria per mL Urine (solid line) and Antibiotic Resistance (dashed line). The x-axis represents Days, ranging from 0 to 12. The y-axis on the left represents Bacteria per mL Urine, ranging from 1.0×107 to 9.0×107. The y-axis on the right represents Antibiotic Resistance, ranging from 0 to 60000. The table below summarizes the data points from the graph:  Then there is a Table: Days Bacteria Per mL Urine ×1007 Antibiotic Resistance 1 8 100000 2 7 100000 3 1 100000 4 >.5 100000 5 >.5 400000 6 .5 425000 7 1 500000 8 1.5 475000 9 1.75 500000 10 2 550000 11 2 525000 12 3 550000 (Antibiotic resistance = minimum inhibitory concentration of streptomycin in μg/ml) Which of the following statements correctly describes these experimental data, or a conclusion that can be properly drawn from them?
