Answer:

All the numbers are less than and equal to 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : All numbers such that a third of a number increased by half that number is at least 3 less than that same number ?

Solution :

Let the number be 'x',

A third of a number is \frac{x}{3}

Half that number is \frac{x}{2}

3 less than that same number is x-3

A third of a number increased by half that number is at least 3 less than that same number is written as,

\frac{x}{3}+\frac{x}{2}\geq x-3

\frac{2x+3x}{6}\geq x-3

\frac{5x}{6}\geq x-3

5x\geq 6x-18

5x-6x\geq -18

-x\geq -18

x\leq 18

Therefore, all the numbers are less than and equal to 18.

Solve for x 3(x+2)+4=5x+7
GaryK [48]
Distribute: 3x+6+4=5x+7
Simplify: 3x+10=5x+7
Subtract 3x from both sides: 10=2x + 7
Subtract 7 from both sides: 3=2x
Divide by 2: x=3/2

x=3/2

A screening test for a disease shows a positive result in 91% of all cases when the disease is actually present and in 7% of all
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

0.0713 = 7.13% probability that the result is positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of a positive test:

91% of 1/650(has the disease).

7% of 1 - 1/650 = 649/650(does not have the disease). So

p = 0.91\frac{1}{650} + 0.07\frac{649}{650} = \frac{0.91 + 0.07*649}{650} = 0.0713

0.0713 = 7.13% probability that the result is positive.
