<span>a) The cell corresponding to a positive diagnosis when the person has antibodies present as well as the cell for a negative diagnosis when the person has no antibodies present are the cells representing a CORRECT diagnosis.
</span>
The cell corresponding to a negative diagnosis when you actually have antibodies present is called a FALSE NEGATIVE and is considered as a TYPE II error.


The cell corresponding to a positive diagnosis when you actually don't have antibodies present is called a FALSE POSITIVE and is considered as a TYPE I error.

For the tree diagram for the questions below, refer to the picture attached.

b) To know the probability that a person without HIV will be diagnosed positive (false positive), we just trace the tree diagram from population to "antibodies not present" to "positive". The tree diagram will give us a value of 0.00588.

ANSWER: 
The probability of a false positive is 0.00588 or 0.588%.

c) We do the same thing as the previous subproblem to determine the probability that a person with HIV will be diagnosed as negative. We trace the tree diagram from population to "antibodies present" to "negative". The tree diagram will give us a value of 0.003.

ANSWER: 
The probability of a false negative is 0.003 or 0.3%.

d) Same thing for this subproblem. We trace the tree diagram from population to "antibodies present" to "positive" to know that the value is 0.01997.

ANSWER: 
The probability that a person with HIV will be diagnosed as positive is 0.01997 or 1.997%.

Order 130 inches, 4 yards, 10 feet from greatest to least
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Before comparison can take place, these three measurements must be expressed in the same unit of measurement:

130 inches becomes 130/12 feet, or 10.83 ft;

4 yards becomes 4*3 feet, or 12 feet; qne

10 feet stays as is.  

It becomes obvious that the greatest measurement is 12 feet, followed by 10.83 feet, followed by 10 feet.

HELP PLEASE
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

The right answer is: 14,256 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, let's identify the dimensions of the tank and convert them to inches

Knowing that  1 Feet = 12 inches

So, the dimensions of the tank, expresed in inches will be:

Height (H): 2 ft. x 12 = 24 inches

Width (W): 1.50 ft. x 12 = 18 inches

Lenght (L): 3 ft. x 12 = 36 inches

Before calculating the volume of water inside the thank, We must consider that <em>there are two inches of empty space at the top.</em>

So , We must substract 2 inches to the height to calculate the volume.

Then, the height used for calculating the volume will be:

H'= 24 inches - 2 inches = 22 inches

Then,

Volume (V)= W x L x H'

V= (18 inches) x (36 inches) x (22 inches)

V= 14,256 cubic inches

The class average on a math test was an 82 with a standard deviation of 5. If the 
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

Option 3 and 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The z score shows by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. The z score is given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\\\where\ x=raw\ score,\mu=mean, \ \sigma=standard\ deviation

Given that mean (μ) = 82, standard deviation (σ) = 5

1) For x = 74:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\\\z=\frac{74-82}{5} =-1.6

Option 1 is incorrect

2) For x < 87

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\\\z=\frac{87-82}{5} =1

From the normal distribution table, P(x < 87) = P(z < 1) = 0.8413 = 84.13%

Option 2 is incorrect

3) For x = 95:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\\\z=\frac{95-82}{5} =2.6

Option 3 is correct

4) For x < 77

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\\\z=\frac{77-82}{5} =-1

From the normal distribution table, P(x < 77) = P(z < -1) = 0.16 = 16%

Option 4 is correct

5) For x > 92

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\\\z=\frac{92-82}{5} =2

From the normal distribution table, P(x > 92) = P(z > 2) = 1 - P(z < -2) = 1 - 0.9772 = 0.0228 = 2.28%

Option 5 is incorrect

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

• The shape of the curve is a rose curve.

• The domain are real numbers

• And the range is approximately from -2 to 2

The maximum value of r on the graph is 2

• Yes the graph is continuous and it is bounded above and below

• The graph is symmetrical about the x axis and not about the y axis.

• No asymptotes
