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

The error interval for x is:
[3.65,3.74]
Step-by-step explanation:
The number after rounding off is obtained as:
3.7
We know that any of the number below on rounding off the number to the first decimal place will result in 3.7:
3.65 3.66 3.67 3.68 3.69 3.70 3.71 3.72 3.73 3.74
( Because if we have to round off a number present in decimals to n place then if there is a number greater than or equal to 5 at n+1 place then it will result to the one higher digit at nth place on rounding off and won't change the digit if it less than 5 )
Hence, the error interval is:
[3.65,3.74]
The answer is A. 17 cm, 5 cm, 13 cm
For the triangle:
a+b > c
b+c > a
a+c > b
Check all choices:
<span>A. 17 cm, 5 cm, 13 cm
a = 17
b = 5
c = 13
17+5 = 22
22 > 13
5+13= 18
18 > 17
17+13=30
30>5
If you check other choices, you will see they are incorrect.</span>
