Suppose that 3% of all athletes are using the endurance-enhancing hormone EPO (you should be able to simply compute the percenta

ge of all athletes that are not using EPO). For our purposes, a “positive” test result is one that indicates presence of EPO in an athlete’s bloodstream. The probability of a positive result, given the presence of EPO is .99. The probability of a negative result, when EPO is not present, is .90. What is the probability that a randomly selected athlete tests positive for EPO? 0.0297

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So there is a 3% probability that an athlete is using EPO .

The probability of showing positive on a test when you've used it is 0.99.

3% x 0.99= 2.97%

The probability of a positive result without EPO is 0.1

97% x 0,1 = 9,7 %

My guess is that 2.97% + 9,7% = 12.67% or 0.1267.

I don't know i may be wrong because you've put as an answer 0.0297 but if you like you may take only the first part of the answer.

Find the sum of the arithmetic sequence 1, 3, 5, 7, … , 99.
bezimeni [28]

The sum of the arithmetic sequence 1, 3, 5, 7, … , 99 is 2525

<h3>What is Sequence?</h3>

Sequence is an enumerated collection of objects in which repetitions are allowed and order matters.

Given sequence is 1, 3, 5, 7, … , 99.

It is a arithmetic sequence, the difference between two consecutive terms will be same

d=3-1=2

first term a=1

l=last term =99

We need to find 99 is which term in the sequence

Aₙ = a + ( n - 1 ) d

99=1+(n-1)2

99=1+2n-2

99=2n-1

100=2n

Divide both sides by 2

50=n

Now we need to find the sum of 50 terms

Sₙ=n/2(l+d)

=50/2(99+2)

=25(101)

=2525

Hence, the sum of the arithmetic sequence 1, 3, 5, 7, … , 99 is 2525

What is the probability of the spinner landing on 2? A spinner is split into 4 equal parts labeled 1, 2, 3, and 4. StartFraction
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

The probability of the spinner landing on 2 is one fourth.

Step-by-step explanation:

The spinner is split into 4 equal parts labeled 1, 2, 3, 4

The probability of the spinner landing on 2 is given as:

(Possibility of it landing on 2) ÷ (Total possible outcome)

The total possible outcome is 4, because the spinner could land on 1, or 2, or 3, or 4.

It can only land on 2 once, so the possibility of it landing on 2 is 1.

Probability = 1/4

What is the solution to the systems of equations?<br> y= 2/3x + 3<br> x=-2
Romashka [77]

Answer:

y = 8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -2

y = 2/(3*-2) + 3

y = 2/-6 + 3

y = -1/3 + 3

y = -1/3 + 9/3

y = 8/3

Steve, 18 years old, is three times as old as his brother Daniel. How old will Steve be when he will be twice as old as Daniel?
gtnhenbr [62]
18 ÷ 3 is 6, which means that Daniel is 6, and there is a 12 year gap between Steve and Daniel.

12 x 2 is 24, so therefore when Steve is 24, Daniel will be 12, so Steve is twice as old as Daniel:)
