A breathalyser test is used by police in an area to determine whether a driver has an excess of alcohol in their blood. The devi

ce is not totally reliable: 5 % of drivers who have not consumed an excess of alcohol give a reading from the breathalyser as being above the legal limit, while 15 % of drivers who are above the legal limit will give a reading below that level. Suppose that in fact 12 % of drivers are above the legal alcohol limit, and the police stop a driver at random. Give answers to the following to four decimal places.
a. What is the probability that the driver is incorrectly classified as being over the limit?
b. What is the probability that the driver is correctly classified as being over the limit?
c. Find the probability that the driver gives a breathalyser test reading that is over the limit.
d. Find the probability that the driver is under the legal limit, given the breathalyser reading is also below the limit.

Answer: 1)The drivers with low alcohol in take from the breathlyser, being above the limit, A = 5/100;

2)The drivers above the alcohol limit, give reading below that level, B = 15/100;

3) The drivers above the alcohol limit that are arrested at radom by police, C = 12/100

Step-by-step explanation: a)  A + B + C = 5/100 + 15/100 + 12/100 = 32/100

b) 1 - ( A + B + C) = 1 - 32/100 = 68/100

c) A = 5/100

d) 1 - 5/100 = 95/100

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-4,-8)(−4,−8) and has an undefined slope?
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

When dealing with an undefined slope it is always written as x=___.

Then plug in the blank with the x in (x,y), so x=-4.

Leona [35]

Answer:

a. 5 b. y = -\frac{3}{4}x + \frac{1}{2} c. 148.5 d. 1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question

Show all of your work, even though the question may not explicitly remind you to do so. Clearly label any functions, graphs, tables, or other objects that you use. Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons, and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems, properties, definitions, or tests are applied. Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers. Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit. Unless otherwise specified, answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified. If your answer is given as a decimal approximation, it should be correct to three places after the decimal point. Unless otherwise specified, the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers for which f() is a real number Let f be an increasing function with f(0) = 2. The derivative of f is given by f'(x) = sin(πx) + x² +3. (a) Find f" (-2) (b) Write an equation for the line tangent to the graph of y = 1/f(x) at x = 0. (c) Let I be the function defined by g(x) = f (√(3x² + 4). Find g(2). (d) Let h be the inverse function of f. Find h' (2). Please respond on separate paper, following directions from your teacher.

Solution

a. f"(2)

f"(x) = df'(x)/dx = d(sin(πx) + x² +3)/dx = cos(πx) + 2x

f"(2) = cos(π × 2) + 2 × 2

f"(2) = cos(2π) + 4

f"(2) = 1 + 4

f"(2) = 5

b. Equation for the line tangent to the graph of y = 1/f(x) at x = 0

We first find f(x) by integrating f'(x)

f(x) = ∫f'(x)dx = ∫(sin(πx) + x² +3)dx = -cos(πx)/π + x³/3 +3x + C

f(0) = 2 so,

2 = -cos(π × 0)/π + 0³/3 +3 × 0 + C

2 = -cos(0)/π + 0 + 0 + C

2 = -1/π + C

C = 2 + 1/π

f(x) = -cos(πx)/π + x³/3 +3x + 2 + 1/π

f(x) = [1-cos(πx)]/π + x³/3 +3x + 2

y = 1/f(x) = 1/([1-cos(πx)]/π + x³/3 +3x + 2)

The tangent to y is thus dy/dx

dy/dx = d1/([1-cos(πx)]/π + x³/3 +3x + 2)/dx

dy/dx = -([1-cos(πx)]/π + x³/3 +3x + 2)⁻²(sin(πx) + x² +3)

at x = 0,

dy/dx = -([1-cos(π × 0)]/π + 0³/3 +3 × 0 + 2)⁻²(sin(π × 0) + 0² +3)

dy/dx = -([1-cos(0)]/π + 0 + 0 + 2)⁻²(sin(0) + 0 +3)

dy/dx = -([1 - 1]/π + 0 + 0 + 2)⁻²(0 + 0 +3)

dy/dx = -(0/π + 2)⁻²(3)

dy/dx = -(0 + 2)⁻²(3)

dy/dx = -(2)⁻²(3)

dy/dx = -3/4

At x = 0,

y = 1/([1-cos(π × 0)]/π + 0³/3 +3 × 0 + 2)

y = 1/([1-cos(0)]/π + 0 + 0 + 2)

y = 1/([1 - 1]/π + 2)

y = 1/(0/π + 2)

y = 1/(0 + 2)

y = 1/2

So, the equation of the tangent at (0, 1/2) is

\frac{y - \frac{1}{2} }{x - 0} = -\frac{3}{4}  \\y - \frac{1}{2} = -\frac{3}{4}x\\y = -\frac{3}{4}x + \frac{1}{2}

c. If g(x) = f (√(3x² + 4). Find g'(2)

g(x) = f (√(3x² + 4) = [1-cos(π√(3x² + 4)]/π + √(3x² + 4)³/3 +3√(3x² + 4) + 2

g'(x) = [3xsinπ√(3x² + 4) + 18x(3x² + 4) + 9x]/√(3x² + 4)

g'(2) = [3(2)sinπ√(3(2)² + 4) + 18(2)(3(2)² + 4) + 9(2)]/√(3(2)² + 4)

g'(2) = [6sinπ√(12 + 4) + 36(12 + 4) + 18]/√12 + 4)

g'(2) = [6sinπ√(16) + 36(16) + 18]/√16)

g'(2) = [6sin4π + 576 + 18]/4)

g'(2) = [6 × 0 + 576 + 18]/4)

g'(2) = [0 + 576 + 18]/4)

g'(2) = 594/4

g'(2) = 148.5

d. If h be the inverse function of f. Find h' (2)

If h(x) = f⁻¹(x)

then h'(x) = 1/f'(x)

h'(x) = 1/(sin(πx) + x² +3)

h'(2) = 1/(sin(π2) + 2² +3)

h'(2) = 1/(sin(2π) + 4 +3)

h'(2) = 1/(0 + 4 +3)

h'(2) = 1/7
