Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
This is a conditional probability exercise.
Let's name the events :
I : ''A person is infected''
NI : ''A person is not infected''
PT : ''The test is positive''
NT : ''The test is negative''
The conditional probability equation is :
Given two events A and B :
P(A/B) = P(A ∩ B) / P(B)

P(A/B) is the probability of the event A given that the event B happened
P(A ∩ B) is the probability of the event (A ∩ B)
(A ∩ B) is the event where A and B happened at the same time
In the exercise :



We are looking for P(I/PT) :
P(I/PT)=P(I∩ PT)/ P(PT)

P(PT/I)=P(PT∩ I)/P(I)
0.904=P(PT∩ I)/0.025
P(PT∩ I)=0.904 x 0.025
P(PT∩ I) = 0.0226
P(PT/NI)=0.041
P(PT/NI)=P(PT∩ NI)/P(NI)
0.041=P(PT∩ NI)/0.975
P(PT∩ NI) = 0.041 x 0.975
P(PT∩ NI) = 0.039975
P(PT) = P(PT∩ I)+P(PT∩ NI)
P(PT)= 0.0226 + 0.039975
P(PT) = 0.062575
P(I/PT) = P(PT∩I)/P(PT)

Answer:
Option D 3/16
Step-by-step explanation:
Carol is cross-country skiing.
With the help of the given table we have to calculate the rate of change.
If we draw a graph for distance traveled on y-axis and tins at x-axis we find two points, ( 2, 1/6) and (3, 17/48).
Then slope of the line connecting these points will be the rate of change.
Rate of change = Slope = 
= 
= 
= 
Option D 3/16 is the answer.
There's no such thing as parallel or perpendicular "to a point". A problem like that
will always want the new line to be parallel or perpendicular to another <em><u>line</u></em>.
-- If the new line is parallel to the given line, then they have the <em><u>same</u></em> slope.
-- If the new line is perpendicular to the the given line, then the slope of the
new line is [ <em><u>1 / slope of the given line</u></em> ].
In either case, you now have the slope of the new line and a point on it.
From there, you should have no trouble finding its equation.
It doesn't give the entire question, Do they want to know how many pieces were in the total cake? If so, I think it would be 384. You subtract the 3 pieces that Mindy ate and that leaves 96 that Tony had which was supposed to be 1/4 of the cake. Dividing the cake into 4 sections of 96 and multiplying would give you 384.
If they want to know how many slices of cake were left after Tony ate the fourth (96 slices), it would be 288
