Lupus is a medical phenomenon where antibodies that are supposed to attack foreign cells to prevent infections instead see plasm

a proteins as foreign bodies, leading to a high risk of blood clotting. It is believed that 2% of the population suffer from this disease. The test is 98% accurate if a person actually has the disease. The test is 74% accurate if a person does not have the disease.
If an individual tests positive for lupus, what is the probability that this is a false positive? (In other words, what is the probability of an individual not having lupus, given that they received a positive test result?)

Do not give your answer as a percentage chance, but rather as a decimal probability (i.e., 0.xxx).

Answer: the answer should be lower than because this is the percentage of people who get diagnosed with a disease that is not lupus 0.465 so about 50% or 0.5 hopefully that help I don't know the answer for the amount of people who don't have it and get misdiagnosed there is no information on it based on what I've seen  

Step-by-step explanation: Its based on a study from the Lupus Foundation of America

Answer:

<u>Part A</u>

 A_{t}=22(12+w)

Applying Distributive property: A_{t}=264+22w

<u>Part B</u>

A_{t}=660\ ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u> Attached is the model that belongs to this exercise (The model was missing)</u></em>

The formula for calculate the area of a rectangle is:

A=lw

Where "l" is the lenght and "w" is the width.

<u>Part A</u>

Notice that the dimensions of the new bathroom are:

l=22\ ft\\w=12\ ft

We do not know the width of the new bathroom, but we know that both rooms will have the same length. Knowing this, we can write an expression for the total area of both rooms by using the Distributive Property:

A_{t}=22(12+w)

Applying Distributive property:

 A_{t}=264+22w

<u>Part B</u>

If the width of the bedroom is 18 feet, you need to substitute this value into the expression A_{t}=264+22w in order to find the total square footage of the two rooms:

A_{t}=264+22w\\\\A_{t}=660\ ft^2
