Based on the given mathematical statement, it can be rewritten into a mathematical equation to simplify and to be solved easily. The statement, "When one is subtracted from three-tenths of a number" corresponds to the equation, 3x/10 - 1, that is assuming the number is represented by the variable x. This is equal to one-fifth of the number. In other words,
3x/10 - 1 = x/5
x = 10
So,
The probability of the man having diabetes is 0.6 or 60%. Because we are figuring the probability BEFORE the test is taken that he has the disease, we can disregard the test and its accuracy rate. That rate is 60%, the probability of him having diabetes.
The correct option is D.

Answer:
Rachel
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to measure how far (towards the left) are the students from the mean in<em> “standard deviations units”</em>.
That is to say, if t is the time the student ran the mile and s is the standard deviation of the class, we must find an x such that
mean - x*s = t
For Rachel we have
11 - x*3 = 8, so x = 1.
Rachel is <em>1 standard deviation far (to the left) from the mean</em> of her class
For Kenji we have
9 - x*2 = 8.5, so x = 0.25
Kenji is <em>0.25 standard deviations far (to the left) from the mean</em> of his class
For Nedda we have
7 - x*4 = 8, so x = 0.25
Nedda is also 0.25 standard deviations far (to the left) from the mean of his class.
As Rachel is the farthest from the mean of her class in term of standard deviations, Rachel is the fastest runner with respect to her class.
