Answer:

x>7 or x ≤ -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving the 1st inequality

-6x +14 < -28 --------------- (Collect like terms)

-6x < -28 - 14

-6x < - 42 -------------------- (Divide both sides by -6)

Note: If you decide an inequality expression by a negative value, the inequality sign changes)

-6x/-6 > -42/-6

x > 7

Solving the 2nd inequality

9x + 15 ≤ −12 ----------- (Collect like terms)

9x ≤ −12 - 15

9x ≤ −27 ------------------(Divide both sides by 9)

9x/9 ≤ −27/9

x ≤ -3

Bring both results together, we get

x>7 or x ≤ -3

The final result is complex (i.e. can't be combined together).

Suppose 10000 people are given a medical test for a disease. About1% of all people have this condition. The test results have a

Alina [70]

Answer:

The percent of the people who tested positive actually have the disease is 38.64%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the events as follows:

X = a person has the disease

P = the test result is positive

N = the test result is negative

Given:

$P(X)=0.01\\P(P|X^{c})=0.15\\P(N|X)=0.10$

Compute the value of P (P|X) as follows:

$P(P|X)=1-P(P|X^{c})=1-0.15=0.85$

Compute the probability of a positive test result as follows:

$P(P)=P(P|X)P(X)+P(P|X^{c})P(X^{c})\\=(0.85\times0.10)+(0.15\times0.90)\\=0.22$

Compute the probability of a person having the disease given that he/she was tested positive as follows:

$P(X|P)=\frac{P(P|X)P(X)}{P(P)}=\frac{0.85\times0.10}{0.22} =0.3864$

The percentage of people having the disease given that he/she was tested positive is, 0.3864 × 100 = 38.64%.

In the diagram, point O is the center of the circle and m∠ADB = 43°. If m∠AOB = m∠BOC, what is m∠BDC?

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

m∠BDC = 43°

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the theorem every peripheral angle in the circle is equal to half value of central angle.

Angle m∠ADB is corresponding peripheral angle of central angle m∠AOB.

According to this m∠AOB = 2· m∠ADB = 2· 43 = 86°

If angle m∠BOC=m∠AOB= 86°

Angle m∠BDC is corresponding peripheral angle of central angle m∠BOC

According to this m∠BDC = m∠BOC/2 = 43°

Good luck!!!
