A science test, which is worth 100 points, consists of 24 questions. Each question is worth either 3 points or 5 points. If x is

the number of 3-point questions and y is the number of 5-point questions, the system shown represents this situation.
x + y = 24

3x + 5y = 100

What does the solution of this system indicate about the questions on the test?

The test contains 4 three-point questions and 20 five-point questions.

The test contains 10 three-point questions and 14 five-point questions.

The test contains 14 three-point questions and 10 five-point questions.

The test contains 20 three-point questions and 8 five-point questions.

3(x - 5) – 3 = 5(x - 2) + 2x
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

x=−2

Step-by-step explanation:       Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3(x−5)−3=5(x−2)+2x

(3)(x)+(3)(−5)+−3=(5)(x)+(5)(−2)+2x(Distribute)

3x+−15+−3=5x+−10+2x

(3x)+(−15+−3)=(5x+2x)+(−10)(Combine Like Terms)

3x+−18=7x+−10

3x−18=7x−10

Step 2: Subtract 7x from both sides.

3x−18−7x=7x−10−7x

−4x−18=−10

Step 3: Add 18 to both sides.

−4x−18+18=−10+18

−4x=8

Step 4: Divide both sides by -4.

−4x

−4

=

8

−4

x=−2

slader Suppose that 8% of all bicycle racers use steroids, that a bicyclist who uses steroids tests positive for steroids 96% of
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

P = 0.4812

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to use here two expressions and then do the calculations.

The first one is the conditional probability which is:

P(B|A) = P(A∩B)/P(A)   (1)

The second expression to use has relation with the Bayes's theorem which is the following:

P(D|C) = P(C|D)*P(D) / P(C|D)*P(D) + P(C|d)*P(d)   (2)

Now, the expression (2) is the one that we will use to calculate the probability of a selected random bicyclist who tests positive for steroids.

So, in this case, we will call C for positive and D that is using steroids and d is the opposite of d, which means do not use steroids.

Then, the probabilities are the following:

P(D) = 8% or 0.08

P(C|D) = 96% or 0.96

P(C|d) = 9% or 0.09

P(d) = 1 - 0.08 = 0.92

With these data, let's replace in expression 2

P(D|C) = 0.96 * 0.08 /0.96 * 0.08 + 0.09*0.92

P(D|C) = 0.0768 / 0.1596

P(D|C) = 0.4812 or 48.12%
