Answer:

x = - 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y varies inversely as x then the equation relating them is

y = \frac{k}{x} ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 27 when x = 12, then

k = yx = 27 × 12 = 324, thus

y = \frac{324}{x} ← is the equation of variation

When y = - 9, then

- 9 = \frac{324}{x} ( multiply both sides by x )

- 9x = 324 ( divide both sides by - 9 )

x = - 36

The most accurate way to state an "odds ratio" is:
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

c. The odds of getting a disease in the exposed versus the odds of getting the disease in the non-exposed

Step-by-step explanation:

Odds ratio (OR) is statistic which quantifies strength of association between the two events, say, A and B.

Odds ratio may be defined as ratio of odds of A in presence of B and  odds of A in absence of B, or vice versa.

If the two events are independent, the OR becomes equal to 1.

If OR is greater than 1, then A and B are positively correlated and compared to the absence of B, the presence of B raises the odds of A or vice versa.

If OR is less than 1, it means that A and B are correlated negatively, and presence of the one event reduces odds of other event.

<u>The best state is shown by C. So, C is the answer where A is the event of getting the disease and B is some exposure to something.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1×6 = 6

3×6 = 18

5×6 = 30

7×6 = 42

Equation for this problem: 6x = y

6×1/6 = 1

18×1/6 = 3

30×1/6 = 5

42×1/6 = 7

Equation for this problem: 1/6x = y
