Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

An extraneous equation is just an equation that you can solve, but the answer won't work when you check it.

x - 9 = 4x

-3 - 9 = 4(-3)

|-12| \neq -12

Find all values of k for which the equation 3x^2−4x+k=0 has no solutions.
dusya [7]

The given equation has no solution when K is any real number  and k>12

We have given that

3x^2−4x+k=0

△=b^2−4ac=k^2−4(3)(12)=k^2−144.

<h3>What is the condition for a solution?</h3>

If Δ=0, it has 1 real solution,

Δ<0 it has no real solution,

Δ>0 it has 2 real solutions.

We get,

Δ=k^2−144 here Δ is not zero.

It is either >0 or <0

Δ<0 it has no real solution,

Therefore the given equation has no solution when K is any real number.

In a large population, 3% of the people are heroin users. A new drug test correctly identifies users 93% of the time and correct
kari74 [83]

Answer:

(a) The probability tree is shown below.

(b) The probability that a person who does not use heroin in this population tests positive is 0.10.

(c) The probability that a randomly chosen person from this population is a heroin user and tests positive is 0.0279.

(d) The probability that a randomly chosen person from this population tests positive is 0.1249.

(e) The probability that a person is heroin user given that he/she was tested positive is 0.2234.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the events as follows:

<em>X</em> = a person is a heroin user

<em>Y</em> = the test is correct.

Given:

P (X) = 0.03

P (Y|X) = 0.93

P (Y|X') = 0.99

(a)

The probability tree is shown below.

(b)

Compute the probability that a person who does not use heroin in this population tests positive as follows:

The event is denoted as (Y' | X').

Consider the tree diagram.

The value of P (Y' | X') is 0.10.

Thus, the probability that a person who does not use heroin in this population tests positive is 0.10.

(c)

Compute the probability that a randomly chosen person from this population is a heroin user and tests positive as follows:

P(X\cap Y)=P(Y|X)P(X)=0.93\times0.03=0.0279

Thus, the probability that a randomly chosen person from this population is a heroin user and tests positive is 0.0279.

(d)

Compute the probability that a randomly chosen person from this population tests positive as follows:

P (Positive) = P (Y|X)P(X) + P (Y'|X')P(X')

                  =(0.93\times0.03)+(0.10\times0.97)\\=0.1249

Thus, the probability that a randomly chosen person from this population tests positive is 0.1249.

(e)

Compute the probability that a person is heroin user given that he/she was tested positive as follows:

P(X|positive)=\frac{P(Y|X)P(X)}{P(positive)} =\frac{0.93\times0.03}{0.1249}= 0.2234

Thus, the probability that a person is heroin user given that he/she was tested positive is 0.2234.
