It is estimated that approximately 8.1% of Americans are afflicted with diabetes. Suppose that a certain diagnostic evaluation f

or diabetes correctly diagnoses 95% of all adults over 40 with diabetes as having the disease and incorrectly diagnoses 3.5% of all adults over 40 without diabetes as having the disease. Use this information and a theoretical group of 10,000 Americans to construct a table for this testing scenario. Round all answers and results to two decimal places. Test Positive Test Negative Total Have Diabetes Do not have Diabetes Total 10,000 What percentage of Americans who test positive for diabetes would we expect to actually have the disease? What percentage of Americans who test negative for diabetes would we expect to actually have the disease? What percentage of Americans who test positive will not have the disease?

Answer:

Multiple answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering that 8.1% of Americans have the disease:

If our theoretical group is of 10,000. We know that the 8.1% of our group have diabetes, so we multiplify 10,000 × .081(the percentaje) = 810. This is the total of adults in our group that have diabetes.

Now:

  • Test Positive:
  1. We know that the test correctly diagnoses 95% of adults with diabetes. In our case the total of adults with diabetes is 810, so we multiplify 810 × .95(percentaje) = 769.50.  
  2. We know too that the test incorrectly diagnoses 3.5% of the adults. In our case the total of adults with diabetes is 810, so we multiplify 810 × .035(percentaje) = 28.35.
  3. The total of adults the test diagnoses positive with diabetes should be the correctly and incorrectly we calculate previously. 769.50 + 28.35 = 797.85
  • Test Negative:
  1. The total of test negative diagnoses should be the total of our group less the positive diagnoses. 10,000 - 797.85 = 9,202.15
  • Total do not have diabetes:
  1. The total of adults do not have diabetes is the total of our group less the total of adults in our group that have diabetes. 10,000 - 810 = 9190

We expect that only the 95% of test positive for diabetes have the disease.

  1. 810 × .95(percentaje) = 769.50.

We expect that only the 5% (100% - 95% of test positive) of the 8.1% of americans afflicted with diabetes of negative test actually have the disease. 8.1 × .05(percentaje) = .40%, 9,202.15 ×.004(percentaje) = 36.80.

The 3.5% of Americans who test positive will not have the disease because this is the percentaje that the test incorrectly diagnoses.

Evaluate 7 r − 15 s 7r− s 15 ​ 7, r, minus, start fraction, 15, divided by, s, end fraction when r = 3 r=3r, equals, 3 and s = 5
NeTakaya

Answer: 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluate 7 r − 15 /s

Given that r = 3 and s = 5

7r - 15/s

Substitute 3 for r and 5 for s in the above expression

7(3) - 15/5

= 21 - 3

= 18

Point P is the incenter of triangle ABC, PZ = 7 units, and PA = 12 units.
cestrela7 [59]

The complete question is

"Point P is the incenter of triangle ABC, PZ = 7 units, and PA = 12 units.

The radius of the incircle centered at point P is ? units."

The radius of the incircle centered at point P is 7 units.

We are given that point P is the incenter of the triangle, and is the center point of the incircle of the triangle.

<h3>What is incircle?</h3>

The incircle is defined as the largest circle that can be made in a triangle and is tangent to each side of the triangle.

Here, The radius of the circle is going to be a perpendicular line from point P to any side of the triangle.

In the triangle ,

PZ = PY = PX,

Each measure of value is equal to the radius of the circle.

Therefore, we already know that PZ = 7 units making the radius, r = 7 units.

The wildflowers at a national park have been decreasing in numbers. There were 300 wildflowers in the first year that the park s
Scorpion4ik [409]
Although the number of new wildflowers is decreasing, the total number of flowers is increasing every year (assuming flowers aren't dying or otherwise being removed). Every year, 25% of the number of new flowers from the previous year are added.
The sigma notation would be:
∑ (from n=1 to ∞) 4800 * (1/4)ⁿ , where n is the year. 
Remember that this notation should give us the sum of all new flowers from year 1 to infinite, and the values of new flowers for each year should match those given in the table for years 1, 2, and 3
This means the total number of flowers equals:
Year 1: 4800 * 1/4 = 1200 ]
+
Year 2: 4800 * (1/4)² = 300
+ 
Year 3: 4800 * (1/4)³ = 75
+  
Year 4: 4800 * (1/4)⁴ = 18.75 = ~19 (we can't have a part of a flower)
+
Year 5: 4800 * (1/4)⁵ = 4.68 = ~ 5
+ 
Year 6: 4800 * (1/4)⁶ = 1.17 = ~1
And so on. As you can see, it in the years that follow the number of flowers added approaches zero. Thus, we can approximate the infinite sum of new flowers using just Years 1-6:
1200 + 300 + 75 + 19 + 5 + 1 = 1,600

A tank with a capacity of 1000 L is full of a mixture of water and chlorine with a concentration of 0.02 g of chlorine per liter
faltersainse [42]

At the start, the tank contains

(0.02 g/L) * (1000 L) = 20 g

of chlorine. Let <em>c</em> (<em>t</em> ) denote the amount of chlorine (in grams) in the tank at time <em>t </em>.

Pure water is pumped into the tank, so no chlorine is flowing into it, but is flowing out at a rate of

(<em>c</em> (<em>t</em> )/(1000 + (10 - 25)<em>t</em> ) g/L) * (25 L/s) = 5<em>c</em> (<em>t</em> ) /(200 - 3<em>t</em> ) g/s

In case it's unclear why this is the case:

The amount of liquid in the tank at the start is 1000 L. If water is pumped in at a rate of 10 L/s, then after <em>t</em> s there will be (1000 + 10<em>t</em> ) L of liquid in the tank. But we're also removing 25 L from the tank per second, so there is a net "gain" of 10 - 25 = -15 L of liquid each second. So the volume of liquid in the tank at time <em>t</em> is (1000 - 15<em>t </em>) L. Then the concentration of chlorine per unit volume is <em>c</em> (<em>t</em> ) divided by this volume.

So the amount of chlorine in the tank changes according to

\dfrac{\mathrm dc(t)}{\mathrm dt}=-\dfrac{5c(t)}{200-3t}

which is a linear equation. Move the non-derivative term to the left, then multiply both sides by the integrating factor 1/(200 - 5<em>t</em> )^(5/3), then integrate both sides to solve for <em>c</em> (<em>t</em> ):

\dfrac{\mathrm dc(t)}{\mathrm dt}+\dfrac{5c(t)}{200-3t}=0

\dfrac1{(200-3t)^{5/3}}\dfrac{\mathrm dc(t)}{\mathrm dt}+\dfrac{5c(t)}{(200-3t)^{8/3}}=0

\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dt}\left[\dfrac{c(t)}{(200-3t)^{5/3}}\right]=0

\dfrac{c(t)}{(200-3t)^{5/3}}=C

c(t)=C(200-3t)^{5/3}

There are 20 g of chlorine at the start, so <em>c</em> (0) = 20. Use this to solve for <em>C</em> :

20=C(200)^{5/3}\implies C=\dfrac1{200\cdot5^{1/3}}

\implies\boxed{c(t)=\dfrac1{200}\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{(200-3t)^5}5}}
