Answer:

0.193877

Step-by-step explanation:

The data given to us is

<em><u>Pre-Employment Drug Screening Results</u></em>

                    Positive test result                 Negative test result

                    Drug Use Is Indicated            Drug Use Is Not Indicated

Subject Uses Drugs:            38                                         12

Subject Is Not a drug user: 19                                         29

Now the total of this is = 38+19+12+29= 98

Now the probability of false positive is = 19/98= 0.193877

The <u>Subject Is Not a drug user </u>  would suffer from a false positive. He is not a user and has a positive result.

Complete the square to rewrite y-x^2-6x+14 in vertex form. then state whether the vertex is a maximum or minimum and give its co
ycow [4]

Answer:

y= x^2 -6x +(\frac{6}{2})^2 +14 -(\frac{6}{2})^2

And solving we have:

y= x^2 -6x +9 + 14 -9

y= (x-3)^2 +5

And we can write the expression like this:

y-5 = (x-3)^2

The vertex for this case would be:

V= (3,5)

And the minimum for the function would be 3 and there is no maximum value for the function

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following equation given:

y= x^2 -6x +14

We can complete the square like this:

y= x^2 -6x +(\frac{6}{2})^2 +14 -(\frac{6}{2})^2

And solving we have:

y= x^2 -6x +9 + 14 -9

y= (x-3)^2 +5

And we can write the expression like this:

y-5 = (x-3)^2

The vertex for this case would be:

V= (3,5)

And the minimum for the function would be 3 and there is no maximum value for the function

D₁ vide using x² - 2x² 2× +3× -5 by ×-3 using synthetic division. <br>​
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I think you are trying to use synthetic division for

x^{4} -2x^{3} -2x^{2} +3x-5 divided by x-3

First  

x -3 = 0 , make it equal to 0 and add 3 to both sides

x = 3

Then we write all the coefficients and continue with

a pattern of multiply by 3 and add to the next coefficient.

6. Multiply: i) 3x (5x+8y)
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3x(5x+8y)=15x^2+24xy

4x(3x^2+5x-7)=12x^3+20x^2-28x

(3x+4y)(2x-7y)=6x^2+8xy-21xy-28y^2=6x^2-13xy-28y^2

(2-3a)(2a^2-3a+7)=4a^2-6a+14-6a^3+9a^2-21a=-6a^3+13a^2-27a+14
