<span>2/15 if drawn without replacement. 1/9 if drawn with replacement. Assuming that the chips are drawn without replacement, there are 6 * 5 different possibilities. And that's a low enough number to exhaustively enumerate them. So they are: 1,2 : 1,3 : 1,4 : 1,5 : 1,6 2,1 : 2,3 : 2,4 : 2,5 : 2,6 3,1 : 3,2 : 3.4 : 3,5 : 3,6 4,1 : 4,2 : 4.3 : 4,5 : 4,6 5,1 : 5,2 : 5.3 : 5,4 : 5,6 6,1 : 6,2 : 6.3 : 6,4 : 6,5 Of the above 30 possible draws, there are 4 that add up to 5. So the probability is 4/30 = 2/15 If the draw is done with replacement, then there are 36 possible draws. Once again, small enough to exhaustively list, they are: 1,1 : 1,2 : 1,3 : 1,4 : 1,5 : 1,6 2,1 : 2,2 : 2,3 : 2,4 : 2,5 : 2,6 3,1 : 3,2 : 3,3 : 3.4 : 3,5 : 3,6 4,1 : 4,2 : 4.3 : 4,4 : 4,5 : 4,6 5,1 : 5,2 : 5.3 : 5,4 : 5,5 : 5,6 6,1 : 6,2 : 6.3 : 6,4 : 6,5 : 6,6 And of the above 36 possibilities, exactly 4 add up to 5. So you have 4/36 = 1/9</span>

The formula for perimeter of a rectangle is P=2L+2W where L is the length and w is the width. A rectangle has a perimeter of 24
Black_prince [1.1K]
24=2(w+4)+2w=4w+8, subtract 8 from both sides 4w=16, w=4. L=w+4 so l is 8. The dimensions are 8 by 4.

0.3% of a country has a certain disease. The test for the disease has a sensitivity of 92% (i.e., of those we know have the dise
butalik [34]

Answer:

0.95988 (Accuracy of the test )

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the accuracy of this test we have to list out the given values

Prevalence rate of the disease = 0.3% = 0.003

sensitivity rate of the disease = 92% = 0.92

specificity rate for the test = 96% = 0.96

The accuracy of the test can be found using this equation

Accuracy = sensitivity * prevalence + specificity ( 1 - prevalence )

                = 0.92 * 0.003 + 0.96 ( 1 - 0.003 )

                = 0.00276 + 0.95712

                = 0.95988
