Answer:
a) 0.2416
b) 0.4172
c) 0.0253
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the result of the test should be independent of the time , then the that the test number of times that test proves correct is independent of the days the river is correct .
denoting event a A=the test proves correct and B=the river is polluted
a) the test indicates pollution when
- the river is polluted and the test is correct
- the river is not polluted and the test fails
then
P(test indicates pollution)= P(A)*P(B)+ (1-P(A))*(1-P(B)) = 0.12*0.84+0.88*0.16 = 0.2416
b) according to Bayes
P(A∩B)= P(A/B)*P(B) → P(A/B)=P(A∩B)/P(B)
then
P(pollution exists/test indicates pollution)=P(A∩B)/P(B) = 0.84*0.12 / 0.2416 = 0.4172
c) since
P(test indicates no pollution)= P(A)*(1-P(B))+ (1-P(A))*P(B) = 0.84*0.88+ 0.16*0.12 = 0.7584
the rate of false positives is
P(river is polluted/test indicates no pollution) = 0.12*0.16 / 0.7584 = 0.0253
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:



Reducing 3 from numerator and denominator,

Answer:
This is the answer if any problem just ask me
Volume of the pipe = πr^2l
Wrong measure = π x (2)^2 x l = 4πl
Correct measure = π x (2 - 2(1/8))^2 x l = 49/16πl
error = 4πl - 49/16πl = 15/16πl
% error = ((15/16πl) / 49/16πl) x 100% = 30.6%
Answer:
-19/9
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you would plug in the numbers for y and r. Therefore, your equation should now be 5 = 9x + 24. Now you would put like terms on the same side. It now then look like -19 = 9x. You divide by 9 to get the x by itself. The answer should be x = -19/9.
