Answer: The answer is x < 5/2 and x > -5.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to separate the inequality and keep x on one side to maintain consistency. For instance the problem-

\frac{5-2x}{3} > 0\\\frac{5-2x}{3} < 5\\

Now solve as normal.

*Note: When dividing a side or multiplying a side by a negative number, the sign of the inequality switches (this will be shown when I do the equation if it doesn't make since how I word it).

5-2x > 0*3\\5-2x < 5*3

-2x > 0-5\\-2x < 15-5

x < \frac{-5}{-2} =x < \frac{5}{2} \\x > \frac{10}{-2} =x > -5

So, x < 5/2 and x > -5.

<em>If anything is confusing about the procedure just leave a comment, and I'll try to explain further.</em>

2.5% of a population are infected with a certain disease. There is a test for the disease, however the test is not completely ac
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

P(disease/positivetest) = 0.36116

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a conditional probability exercise.

Let's name the events :

I : ''A person is infected''

NI : ''A person is not infected''

PT : ''The test is positive''

NT : ''The test is negative''

The conditional probability equation is :

Given two events A and B :

P(A/B) = P(A ∩ B) / P(B)

P(B) >0

P(A/B) is the probability of the event A given that the event B happened

P(A ∩ B) is the probability of the event (A ∩ B)

(A ∩ B) is the event where A and B happened at the same time

In the exercise :

P(I)=0.025

P(NI)= 1-P(I)=1-0.025=0.975\\P(NI)=0.975

P(PT/I)=0.904\\P(PT/NI)=0.041

We are looking for P(I/PT) :

P(I/PT)=P(I∩ PT)/ P(PT)

P(PT/I)=0.904

P(PT/I)=P(PT∩ I)/P(I)

0.904=P(PT∩ I)/0.025

P(PT∩ I)=0.904 x 0.025

P(PT∩ I) = 0.0226

P(PT/NI)=0.041

P(PT/NI)=P(PT∩ NI)/P(NI)

0.041=P(PT∩ NI)/0.975

P(PT∩ NI) = 0.041 x 0.975

P(PT∩ NI) = 0.039975

P(PT) = P(PT∩ I)+P(PT∩ NI)

P(PT)= 0.0226 + 0.039975

P(PT) = 0.062575

P(I/PT) = P(PT∩I)/P(PT)

P(I/PT)=\frac{0.0226}{0.062575} \\P(I/PT)=0.36116
