The correct answer is A) y = -1/5x + 1

To find the equation of the line, start by finding the slope. You can do this by using the slope formula below.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (2 - -1)/(-5 - 10)

m = 3/-15

m = -1/5

Now that we have the slope, we can use it along with either point in point-slope form to get the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 2 = -1/5(x + 5)

y - 2 = -1/5x - 1

y = -1/5x + 1

Suppose that one person in 10,000 people has a rare genetic disease. There is an excellent test for the disease; 99.9% of people
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Part a: The probability that someone tests positive and does not have the disease is given as P(F'|E) is 0.6667

Part b: The probability that someone tests negative and  have the disease is given as P(F|E') is 0.000000103

Step-by-step explanation:

The event that the test is positive is  E and the patient has disease is  F

so

The probability of a person having disease is  P(F)=1/10000=0.0001

The probability of a person having disease and test positive is  P(E|F)=0.999

The probability of a person not having disease and testing positive is  P(E|F')=0.0002

Now by using complement rule, the value of people not having the disease is  P(F')=1-P(F)=1-0.0001=0.9999

Part a:

The probability that someone tests positive and does not have the disease is given as P(F'|E) by Bayes theorem is as

P(F'|E)=\dfrac{P(E|F')P(F')}{P(E|F)P(F)+P(E|F')P(F')}

By substitution of the values

P(F'|E)=\dfrac{P(E|F')P(F')}{P(E|F)P(F)+P(E|F')P(F')}\\P(F'|E)=\dfrac{(0.0002)(0.9999)}{(0.9999)(0.0001)+(0.0002)(0.9999)}\\P(F'|E)=\dfrac{0.00019998}{0.00029997}\\P(F'|E)=0.6667

The probability that someone tests positive and does not have the disease is given as P(F'|E) is 0.6667

Part b

The probability that someone tests positive and does not have the disease is given as P(F|E') by Bayes theorem is as

P(F|E')=\dfrac{P(E'|F)P(F)}{P(E'|F)P(F)+P(E'|F')P(F')}

The probabilities are calculated as

P(E'|F)=1-P(E|F)=1-0.999=0.001

P(E'|F')=1-P(E|F')=1-0.0002=0.9998

By substitution of the values

P(F|E')=\dfrac{P(E'|F)P(F)}{P(E'|F)P(F)+P(E'|F')P(F')}\\P(F|E')=\dfrac{(0.001)(0.0001)}{(0.001)(0.0001)+(0.9998)(0.9999)}\\P(F|E')=\dfrac{0.0000001}{0.99970012}\\P(F|E')=0.000000103

The probability that someone tests negative and have the disease is given as P(F|E') is 0.000000103

Pick out three equivalent fractions from the group 1/2 , 1/3, 3/4,3/6,2/4,4/10​
Drupady [299]

Answer:

1/2, 3/6 and 2/4 are equivalent fractions.

Step-by-step explanation:

To know if the fractions are equivalent, their simplest form should be the same.

So we must simplify all the fractions to their simplest form.

To find the simplest form of a fraction, we must divide the numerator and denominator with their GCF (Greatest Common Factor)

So:

1/2 = 1/2

1/3 = 1/3

3/4 = 3/4

3/6 = 1/2 ( The GCF for 3 and 6 is 3)

2/4 = 1/2 ( The GCF for 2 and 4 is 2)

4/10 = 2/5 ( The GCF for 4 and 10 is 2)

Because 1/2, 3/6 and 2/4 has the same simplest form, they are equivalent fractions.

I hope this helps! I'm sorry if it's wrong or too complicated.
