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).
a) P(A)
b) P(B)

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

Solve the equation by factoring.<br> 3z2 + 3z – 6 = 0<br> z = 3 or z = 2
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

<u>3</u><u>z</u><u>^2 + 3z - 6 </u>=0

3

3 (z^2 + z -2) = 0

3(z+2)(z - 1) = 0

z + 2-2 = 0 - 2

z = -2

z - 1 + 1 = 0 + 1

z = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. factor out the GCF (3) and divide everything by it, and then set it equal to zero.
  2. since you have a degree of 2, factor it into two binomials that start with the square root of the first term and end with the square root of the second term.
  3. 3=0 is extraneous solution so we leave it, then we set each binomial equal to zero to solve for z.

note: your solutions is based on the degree or the exponent of the polynomial or the function.
