The volunteers gave 1368 fliers in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Fliers given by volunteers in first neighborhood = \frac{21}{38}

Remaining fliers = 612

Fraction of remaining fliers = 1-\frac{21}{38}=\frac{38-21}{38}

Fraction of remaining fliers = \frac{17}{38}

Let,

x be the total fliers given by volunteers.

\frac{17}{38}\ of\ x=612

\frac{17}{38}x=612

Multiplying both sides by \frac{38}{17}

\frac{38}{17}*\frac{17}{38}x=612*\frac{38}{17}\\\\x=\frac{23256}{17}\\\\x=1368

The volunteers gave 1368 fliers in total.

Point A(4,2) is translated according to the rule (x,y)-> (x+1, y-5) and then reflected across the Y-axis.
marishachu [46]
Given:

Point A with coordinates: (4, 2) is in the first quadrant.

The point is translated to the rule (x, y) --> (x+1, y-5)

Now, point A becomes (4+1, 2-5) = (5, -3) which is now in quadrant 4. 

The point is reflected across the y-axis. Now, it is in the third quadrant.

Both lines pass through the point (-3,-4). one has a slope of 4 and the other has a slope of -1/4
Alchen [17]
If the question is to find the slope-intercept form of both lines, here's the answer:
Both lines pass through the point (-3,-4), so we can use these coordinates in both equations. The slope-intercept form is represented by y=mx+b, with m the slope, b the intersection of the line with Y'Y for x=0, y and x the coordinates of a point.
Let's first apply all these for the first line, with a slope of 4.
y = mx + b
y=-3; x=-4; m=4. All we need to do is find b.
-3 = 4(-4) + b
-3 = -16 + b
b=13
So the equation of the first line is y= 4x + 13.

Now, we'll do the same thing but for the second line:
y=-3; x=-4; m=-1/4, and we need to find b.
-3 = (-1/4)(-4) + b
-3 = 1 + b
b= -4
So the equation of the second line is y=(-1/4)x - 4

Hope this Helps! :)

Imagine that you have developed a genetic test to detect the dominant allele (A) that cause a rare genetic condition. As with mo
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Correct option: (B) 1.495%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the events as follows:

<em>X</em> = the test is positive.

<em>A</em> = a person with the dominant allele

The information given are:

P(X|A)=1\\P (X|A^{c})=0.005\\P(A)=0.01

According to the law of total probability the probability of an event <em>A, </em>conditional upon the occurrence of another event <em>B</em> is:

P(A)=P(A|B)P(B)+P(A|B^{c})P(B^{c})

Use this law to compute the probability of person having a positive result as follows:

 P(X)=P(X|A)P(A)+P(X|A^{c})P(A^{c})\\=(1\times0.01)+(0.005\times(1-0.01))\\=0.01+0.00495\\=0.01495

The percentage of positive result is: 0.01495 × 100 = 1.495%.

Thus, the percentage of the population will give a positive test is 1.495%.

A number decreased by 4 equals -12. What is the number? _____
elena55 [62]

x - 4 = -12

I think x = -8 as if you decrease -8 by 4 it will leave us with the answer of -12

x = -8

Hope this helped,

Jon
