Question:
Which of the following expressions represents the distance between 1.7 and −1/2 on a number line?
Choose 1 answer:


C. None of the above
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Numbers: 1.7 and -1/2
Required
Determine the distance
To calculate the distance, we start by calculating the difference between the given numbers;

Then, we calculate the distance;
<em>In this case, the distance is meant to be positive; So, we'll introduce the symbol for absolute value;</em>
Hence,

Substitute
for Difference;

<em>Hence, the correct option is B</em>
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
Here's how this works:
Get everything together into one fraction by finding the LCD and doing the math. The LCD is sin(x) cos(x). Multiplying that in to each term looks like this:
![[sin(x)cos(x)]\frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}+[sin(x)cos(x)]\frac{cos(x)}{sin(x)} =?](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Bsin%28x%29cos%28x%29%5D%5Cfrac%7Bsin%28x%29%7D%7Bcos%28x%29%7D%2B%5Bsin%28x%29cos%28x%29%5D%5Cfrac%7Bcos%28x%29%7D%7Bsin%28x%29%7D%20%3D%3F)
In the first term, the cos(x)'s cancel out, and in the second term the sin(x)'s cancel out, leaving:

Put everything over the common denominator now:

Since
, we will make that substitution:

We could separate that fraction into 2:
×
and 
Therefore, the simplification is
sec(x)csc(x)
Answer:
The probability that a woman in her 60s has breast cancer given that she gets a positive mammogram is 0.0276.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a set be events that have occurred be denoted as:
S = {A₁, A₂, A₃,..., Aₙ}
The Bayes' theorem states that the conditional probability of an event, say <em>A</em>ₙ given that another event, say <em>X</em> has already occurred is given by:

The disease Breast cancer is being studied among women of age 60s.
Denote the events as follows:
<em>B</em> = a women in their 60s has breast cancer
+ = the mammograms detects the breast cancer
The information provided is:

Compute the value of P (B|+) using the Bayes' theorem as follows:




Thus, the probability that a woman in her 60s has breast cancer given that she gets a positive mammogram is 0.0276.
