Consider this:

If a test gives a positive result for an infected person 98% of the time, that means that 2% of the time, it gives a negative result for an infected person, which would be a false negative.

Then,

if the test is 97& accurate (not precise) for non-infected people, that means that it gives a negative result 97& of the time. So a positive result will be given 3% of the time for non-infected people, which is considered a false positive.

The function f(x) is a quadratic function and a limited table of values is provided below. Write the equation of the quadratic p
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

  f(x) = 3x^2 -21x +36

Step-by-step explanation:

The table gives the x- and y-intercepts, which are sufficient to write the equation in factored form. The x-intercepts of 3 and 4 tell you that factors are (x -3)(x -4). When x=0, this product is (-3)(-4) = 12, but the y-intercept value is 3 times that: 36. So, the factored equation is ...

  f(x) = 3(x -3)(x -4)

Multiplying this out, we get ...

  f(x) = 3(x^2 -7x +12)

  f(x) = 3x^2 -21x +36
