Answer:
a) 0.2416
b) 0.4172
c) 0.0253
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the result of the test should be independent of the time , then the that the test number of times that test proves correct is independent of the days the river is correct .
denoting event a A=the test proves correct and B=the river is polluted
a) the test indicates pollution when
- the river is polluted and the test is correct
- the river is not polluted and the test fails
then
P(test indicates pollution)= P(A)*P(B)+ (1-P(A))*(1-P(B)) = 0.12*0.84+0.88*0.16 = 0.2416
b) according to Bayes
P(A∩B)= P(A/B)*P(B) → P(A/B)=P(A∩B)/P(B)
then
P(pollution exists/test indicates pollution)=P(A∩B)/P(B) = 0.84*0.12 / 0.2416 = 0.4172
c) since
P(test indicates no pollution)= P(A)*(1-P(B))+ (1-P(A))*P(B) = 0.84*0.88+ 0.16*0.12 = 0.7584
the rate of false positives is
P(river is polluted/test indicates no pollution) = 0.12*0.16 / 0.7584 = 0.0253
13 cm+ 13 cm= 26 cm, 26 cm is the answer to Part B.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance formula states that the distance between two points 
and 
is 
.
The two points we have are 
and 
. Plugging these numbers into the distance formula, we have
.
Simplifying with order of operations, first using the distributive property, gives
.
Squaring and adding gives
which is the answer in simplest form. This also rounds to about 12.04.
Answer:
if you're simplifying, it should be = -1b - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 4(1-2b) + 7b -10 solve the parenthesis
2. 4 <u>- 8b</u> <u>+ </u><u>7b</u> - 10 combine like(same) terms
3. <u>4</u> - 1b <u>- 10</u> same as 2.
4. -1b - 6
The answer to this question is D) 13.9 in.
