There is a 2.4% chance of getting two negative tests.

The chance the first test is positive is 0.92, therefore the chance it is negative is 0.08.

The chance the second test is positive is 0.3, therefore the chance is it negative is 0.3.

To find the chance that both tests are negative, we have to multiply them together.

0.08 x 0.3 = 0.024 = 2.4%

Find the value of x. (Type an integer or decimal.)
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

An angle formed by 2 tangent lines is equal to one half the measure of the major arc minus the measure of the minor arc.

we are given the minor arc ( 110 ) however we are not given the major arc.

Because circles make a 360 degree rotation we can find the major arc by subtracting the measure of the minor arc from 360

Thus, major arc = 360 - 110 = 250

Now that we have identified the major and minor arc we can find x

Recall that x = 1/2 ( major arc - minor arc )

Thus, x = 1/2 ( 250 - 110 )

250 - 110 = 140

140 / 2 = 70

Hence, x = 70
