Samples of skin experiencing desquamation are analyzed for both moisture and melanin content. The results from 100 skin samples

are as follows: melanin content high low moisture high 13 10 content low 47 30 Let A denote the event that a sample has low melanin content, and let B denote the event that a sample has high moisture content. Determine the following probabilities. Round your answers to three decimal places (e.g. 98.765).

Answer: a. 0.40   b. 0.23  c . 0.435   d . 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

                                   melanin      content    Total

                                            high   low

moisture   high                     13      10                23

content    low                       47      30                77

 Total                                   60      40              <u> </u><u>100</u>

Let A denote the event that a sample has low melanin content, and let B denote the event that a sample has high moisture content.

a) Total skin samples has low melanin content = 10+30=40

P(A)=\dfrac{40}{100}=0.40

b) Total skin samples has high moisture content = 13+10=23

P(B) =\dfrac{23}{100}=0.23

c) A ∩ B =  Total skin samples has both low melanin content and high moisture content =10

P(A ∩ B) =\dfrac{10}{100}=0.10

Using conditional probability formula , P (A|B)=\dfrac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)}

P (A|B)=\dfrac{0.10}{0.23}=0.434782608696\approx0.435

d)  P (B|A)=\dfrac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)}

P (B|A)=\dfrac{0.10}{0.40}=0.25

Follow the process of completing the square to solve 2x2 + 8x - 12 = 0. After adding B2 to both sides of the equation in step 4,
Katena32 [7]
2x^2 + 8x - 12 = 0..divide by 2
x^2 + 4x - 6 = 0
x^2 + 4x = 6...add 4 to both sides of the equation
x^2 + 4x + 4 = 6 + 4
(x + 2)^2 = 10....<== ur constant is 10
x + 2 = (+-)sqrt 10
x = -2 (+ - ) sqrt 10

x = -2 + sqrt 10
x = -2 - sqrt 10
