Answer:

The true solution is x=4/9

EXPLANATION

The logarithmic equation given to us is

We need to use the quotient rule of logarithms.

When we apply this law the expression becomes

We now take the antilogarithm of both sides to get

We square both sides to get,

We evaluate to obtain,

This simplifies to

We divide both sides by 36 to get

We simplify to get,

answer: x =  \\ \frac{4}{9\\}

log_{2} (6x) - log_{2} (\sqrt{x}) = 2

<em>expand the expression:</em>

  • log_{2}(6x) = log_{2} (6) + log_{2} (x)
  • log_{2} (\sqrt{x}) = log_{2} (x^{\frac{1}{2} })

<em>transform the expression:</em>

  • log_{2} (x^{\frac{1}{2} }) = \frac{1}{2} * log_{2} (x)

<em>calculate the difference:</em>

  • log_{2} (x) - \frac{1}{2} * log_{2} (x) = \frac{1}{2} * log_{2} (x)

<em>multiply both sides by 2:</em>

  • log_{2} (6) + \frac{1}{2} * log_{2} (x) = 2   is now   2 log_{2} (6) + log_{2} (x) = 4

<em>transform the expression:</em>

  • 2 log_{2} (6) = log_{2} (6^{2})

<em>simplify the expression:</em>

  • log_{2} (6^{2}) + log_{2} (x) = log_{2} (6^{2} x)

<em>evaluate the power:</em>

  • log_{2} (6^{2} x) = log_{2} (36x)

<em>convert the logarithm into exponential form:</em>

  • <em />log_{2}(36x) = 4    is now   36x = 2^{4}

<em>evaluate the power:</em>

  • <em />2^{4}  = 16

<em>divide both sides by 36:</em>

  • \frac{36}{36} x  =  \frac{16}{36}   which is   x = \frac{4}{9}

In a clinical study, volunteers are tested for a gene that has been found to increase the risk for a disease. The probability th
MrRa [10]

Answer:

a) 0.984

b) 20 people

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

If The probability that a person carries the gene is 0.1, then in a sample of 20 people, 2 should carry the gene.

Now, we want to know how many samples there are with this property.

Since we have 20 elements where 18 are alike (do not carry the gene) and 2 are alike (carry the gene), we have to compute the number of permutations of 20 elements in which 18 are alike and 2 are alike. This number is

\frac{20!}{18!2!}=190

In this 190 20-tuples there are only 3 where the 2 carriers of the gene are in the first 3 places, namely

(1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0)

(1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0)

(0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0)

where 1=carries the gene, 0=does not carry the gene.

So there are 190-3 = 187 elements in which the first 3 elements have no 2 carriers, hence the probability that 4 or more people will have to be tested until 2 of them with the gene are detected is 187/190 = 0.984 (98.4%) rounded to three decimal places.

b)

Given that the probability that a person carries the gene is 0.1, then in a sample of 20 people, 20*0.1 = 2 should carry the gene.
