The data represent the results for a test for a certain disease. Assume one individual from the group is randomly selected. Find

the probability of getting someone who tests negative, given that he or she did not have the disease. Round to three decimal places as needed.

Answer:

0.505 = 50.7% probability of a negative test.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this question:

142 + 6 = 148 people tested positive. Of those, 142 had the disease and 6 did not.

7 + 145 = 152 people tested negative. Of those, 7 had the disease and 145 did not.

Find the probability of getting someone who tests negative, given that he or she did not have the disease.

This is the probability of a negative test.

152 negative tests out of 148 + 152 = 300

152/300 = 0.507

0.505 = 50.7% probability of a negative test.

How do I prove that 2 cot 2x = cot x-tan x?
BlackZzzverrR [31]
We will start off working on the right hand side. 
<span>cot x - tan x </span>
<span>= [cos x / sin x] - [sin x / cos x] </span>
<span>= [(cos x)^ 2 - (sin x)^2] / [sin x cos x] </span>

<span>This is where it gets a bit tougher if you do not have your formula list with you. </span>
<span>(cos x)^ 2 - (sin x)^2 = cos(2x) </span>
<span>sin 2x = 2 sin x cos x </span>

<span>Note that by arranging the second formula, we will have sin x cos x = (1/2) sin 2x </span>

<span>Hence, we will get: </span>
<span>[(cos x)^ 2 - (sin x)^2] / [sin x cos x] </span>
<span>= [cos 2x] / (1/2)[sin 2x] </span>
<span>= 2[cos 2x] / [sin 2x] </span>
<span>= 2cot 2x </span>

One number is eight less than three times another number. If the sum of the numbers is 20, find the numbers.
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

7 & 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x

2nd number = 8 less than 3 times the other

2nd number = 3x - 8

Their sum = 20

X + 3x - 8 = 20

4x -8 = 20

Collect like terms

4x = 20+8

4x = 28

Divide both sides by 4

4x/4 = 28/4

X = 7

First number = 7

2nd number = 3x - 8

= 3(7) - 8

= 21 -8

= 13.

Therefore the numbers are 7 and 13

Evgesh-ka [11]
Do 2^3 first. It is isolated on one side of a set of the + sign.
{8 + [4*(10 - 6)]} / 3 Next do the innermost 
{8 + [4*4]} / 3 Do what's in the square brackets.
{8 + 16} / 3
24/3 Divide by 3
The answer is 8

8 <<<< answer.
