You can cross multiply. 
1/39.97 = x/240
39.97x = 240 times 1
 39.97x = 240
 divide each side by 39.97
39.97x/39.97 = 240/39.97
 dividing 39.97 to itself crosses it out,
so your left with x = 6 
so, 6 meters

This season, Lisa's lacrosse team has won $\frac 23 of their home games (games played at Lisa's school), but just $\frac 25 of t
juin [17]

Answer:

Lisa's team have played 24 home games and 25 away games.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Let x represents games played at home.

also y represent games played away.

Total number of games played = 49

∴ x+y=49 \ \ \ \  equation \ 1

Now according to given data:

Number of home games won = \frac{2}{3}

Number of away game won = \frac{2}{5}

Total games won =26

Hence

\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{2}{5}y=26\\\\\frac{2\times 5}{3\times 5}x+\frac{2\times 3}{5\times 5}y=26\\\\\frac{10}{15}x+\frac{6}{15}y=26\\\\\frac{10x+6y}{15}=26\\\\10x+6y= 26\times 15\\10x+6y = 390\\2(5x+3y)=390\\5x+3y=\frac{390}{5}\\\\5x+3y=195 \ \ \ \ equation \ 2\\

Now multiplying equation 1 by 3 we get,

3(x+y)=3\times49\\3x+3y=147 \ \ \ \ \ equation \ 3\\

Now Subtracting equation 2 by equation 3 we get,

(5x+3y=195)-(3x+3y=147)\\2x=48\\x= \frac{48}{2}=24

Substituting value of x in equation 1 we get.

x+y=49\\24+y=49\\y=49-24=25

Hence Lisa's team have played 24 home games and 25 away games.

Answer:

A) The sequence is geometric because the sequence is increasing by a factor of 2 being multiplied to each term, when ascending from left to right.

B) a_{n} = 5(2)^{n-1}

C) a_{n} = a_{n-1} *(2) ;a_{1}= 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence is multiplying each term by a factor of 2.

5*2=10

10*2=20

20*2=40

A screening test for a certain disease is used in a large population of people of whom 1 in 1000 actually have the disease. Supp
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

P(D/T)=5.05*10^{-6}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call D the event that a person has the disease, D' the event that a person doesn't have the disease and T the event that the person tests negative for the disease.

So, the probability P(D/T) that a randomly chosen person who tests negative for the disease actually has the disease is calculated as:

P(D/T) = P(D∩T)/P(T)

Where P(T) = P(D∩T) + P(D'∩T)

So, the probability P(D∩T) that a person has the disease and the person tests negative for the disease is equal to:

P(D∩T) = (1/1000)*(0.005) = 0.000005

Because 1/1000 is the probability that the person has the disease and 0.005 is the probability that the person tests negative given that the person has the disease.

At the same way, the probability P(D'∩T) that a person doesn't have the disease and the person tests negative for the disease is equal to:

P(D'∩T) = (999/1000)*(0.99) = 0.98901

Finally, P(T) and P(D/T) are equal to:

P(T) = 0.000005 + 0.98901 = 0.989015

P(D/T) = 0.000005/0.989015 = 5.05*10^{-6}
