Answer:

The direction of the force will be towards the east

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The direction of the downward

Generally according to Fleming's right-hand rule(

Thumb - direction of force

Middle finger - direction of current

Index finger - direction of the magnetic field

) and the fact that the earth magnetic field acts from south to north with respect to the four cardinal points then the direction of the force will be toward the east with respect to the four cardinal point on the earth

Answer:

a)0.024

b)0.148

Explanation:

Let 's represent the set of deer ticks Carrying Lyme disease with L and the set of deer ticks carrying Human Granulocytic Ehrlichiosis with H

Given:

P(L) = 0.16

P(H) = 0.10

P(L n H) = 0.1 ·P( L u H )

Hence, P( L u H) = 10 ·P( L nH)

(a)

Hence. using the equation. P(L U H) = P(L) + P(H) - P(L n H)

Hence, 10 · P(L n H ) = 0.16 + 0.1 - P(L n H )

Hence, 11 · P(L n H) = 0.16 + 0.1 = 0.26

Hence, P(L n H) = 0.26/11=0.024

(b)

We know that condition probability P(H ║ L) = p(L n H)/P(L)

hence, P(H ║ L) =(0.26/11)/0.16 =0.148
