Answer:

11.33 * 16.33 meters to the nearest hundredth.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the pool be x meters, then the length is x+5 meters.

The length of whole area = x + 5 + 2(3)  = x + 11 meters and the width is

x + 2(3) = x + 6 meters.

So we have the equation (x + 6)(x + 11) = 387.

x^2 + 17x + 66 = 387

x^2 + 17x - 321 = 0

x =  [-17 +/- sqrt (17^2 - 4*1*-321)] / 2

x = 11.33 meters

So the width is 11.3 m and the length is 16.33 meters.

In a clinical study, volunteers are tested for a gene that has been found to increase the risk for a disease. The probability th

Answer:

a) 0.984

b) 20 people

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

If The probability that a person carries the gene is 0.1, then in a sample of 20 people, 2 should carry the gene.

Now, we want to know how many samples there are with this property.

Since we have 20 elements where 18 are alike (do not carry the gene) and 2 are alike (carry the gene), we have to compute the number of permutations of 20 elements in which 18 are alike and 2 are alike. This number is

\frac{20!}{18!2!}=190

In this 190 20-tuples there are only 3 where the 2 carriers of the gene are in the first 3 places, namely

(1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0)

(1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0)

(0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0)

where 1=carries the gene, 0=does not carry the gene.

So there are 190-3 = 187 elements in which the first 3 elements have no 2 carriers, hence the probability that 4 or more people will have to be tested until 2 of them with the gene are detected is 187/190 = 0.984 (98.4%) rounded to three decimal places.

b)

Given that the probability that a person carries the gene is 0.1, then in a sample of 20 people, 20*0.1 = 2 should carry the gene.
