First, the dot stands for the "product". You have to multiply.

5/8* 2/7
= [5/ (2*4)]* (2/7)
= 5/4* 1/7 (because 2 and 2 cancel out)
= (5*1)/ (4*7)
= 5/28

The final answer is 5/28~

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

0.0537

Step-by-step explanation:

This follows a binomial distribution with : n

Number of trials 'N' = 12 ; Probability of success (difference between speakers) 'p' = 1/2 or 0.5 ; Probability of failure (no difference b/w speakers) = 1/2 or 0.5 ; No of success 'r' = 3

P (X = 3) = N C r. (p)^r.(q)^(n-r)\\

= 12C3 (0.5)^3 (0.5)^9

Alla [95]

Answer:

0.03

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage of americans with diabetes = 10.5% = 0.105

Percentage of americans without diabetes = 89.5% = 0.895

Adults over 40 with diabetes tested positive = 95% = 0.95

Adults over 40 with diabetes tested negative = 5% = 0.05

Adults over 40 without diabetes tested positive = 3.5% = 0.035

Adults over 40 without diabetes tested negative = 96.5% = 0.965

The probability of selecting an adult over 40 without diabetes but positive diagnosis;

     = 0.895 * 0.035

     = 0.031325

     = 0.03
