Answer: B. Accurate but not reliable

Step-by-step explanation:

An experiment is said to be "reliable" when it consistently gives the same answers when done repeatedly, when the experiment is carried out several times it gives the same result each times.

An experiment is said to be " accurate "

when it produce a correct result using the right procedure and method .

In this case the research assessing a new screening tools for early identification of prostate cancer, test result is "accurate but not reliable ", since the consistent test result was not accurate.

Answer:

  • (-4)³ = -64
  • -64

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step in solving the equation is to cube both sides:

  (∛x)³ = (-4)³ . . . . . = (-4)(-4)(-4) = 16(-4) = -64

  x = -64 . . . . . simplified

__

We're not sure what "checking" is supposed to involve here. Usually, one would check the answer by seeing if a true statement is made when the answer is put into the original equation.

  ∛(-64) = -4 . . . true

Many calculators will not compute √(-64) because they compute roots using logarithms. The log of a negative number is not defined.

So, the way one would check this is to cube both sides, which is how we got the answer in the first place. We expect the same result from doing the same operation again, so it isn't really a check.

Distance between (-6, -2) and (0,-1)
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

To find the distance between two points, you square the difference of the x-values and square the difference of the y-values, add them, and then you square root it!

First, we'll add our two x-values.

-6-0= -6

We square it, which means to multiply it by itself.

-6(-6)=36        (If you multiply an even number of negative numbers, your answer is positive. Since we have two negative numbers, we get positive 36)

Now, we do the same with the y-values.

-2-(-1)=-1           (two negatives make it a plus, as in minus minus 1 is plus one.)

We square it.

-1(-1)=1              

Now, we add these x and y value differences.

36+1=37

Now, we find the square root using a calculator.

√37≈6.08

Have a wonderful day!

Of the 50 students in an undergraduate statistics class, 60% send email and/or text messages during any given lecture. They have
sasho [114]

Answer:

0.3 or 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since no innocent student will ever be caught, the probability that a student sends an email and/or text message during a lecture AND gets caught is given by the product of the probability of a student sending a message (60%) by the probability of the professor catching them (50%) :

P = 0.5*0.6 = 0.3

The probability is 0.3 or 30%.

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

c. (1,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

by adding them together you can cancel out the y's and solve for x. once you get x, you can plug it into either equation and get y.
