Answer:  Probability that an athlete uses steroids given that he tests positive is 91.6%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event that athletes test positive for steroids .

Let B be the event that he actually use steroids.

Since we have given that

Probability that athletes test positive for steroids = P(A) = 12%

Probability that athletes test positive for steroids and actually use steroids = P(A∩B) = 11%

So, we need to find the probability that an athletes use steroids given that he tests positive.

For this we will use "Conditional probability":

P(B\mid A)=\dfrac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)}\\\\P(B\mid A)=\dfrac{11}{12}\\\\P(B\mid A)=0.916\\\\P(B\mid A)=0.916\times 100\%\\\\P(B\mid A)=91.6\%

Hence, Probability that an athlete uses steroids given that he tests positive is 91.6%.

Find the value of x sum of angle measures 360
nlexa [21]

Answer:

x =120

60,60,120,120

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles  is 360

x + x+ 1/2x + 1/2x = 360

Combine like terms

3x = 360

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 =360/3

x =120

The 4 angles are 120, 120,60,60

From least to greatest

60,60,120,120
