Answer:

contradiction

Step-by-step explanation:

they are both the same thing so how can they contradict? they can because the sign in the middle is greater than. if you put 1 in as x, you will get 2 is greater than 2 which does not make sense

A new test to detect TB has been designed. It is estimated that 88% of people taking this test have the disease. The test detect

Elodia [21]

Answer:

Correct option: (a) 0.1452

Step-by-step explanation:

The new test designed for detecting TB is being analysed.

Denote the events as follows:

<em>D</em> = a person has the disease

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

The information provided is:

$P(D)=0.88\\P(X|D)=0.97\\P(X^{c}|D^{c})=0.99$

Compute the probability that a person does not have the disease as follows:

$P(D^{c})=1-P(D)=1-0.88=0.12$

The probability of a person not having the disease is 0.12.

Compute the probability that a randomly selected person is tested negative but does have the disease as follows:

$P(X^{c}\cap D)=P(X^{c}|D)P(D)\\=[1-P(X|D)]\times P(D)\\=[1-0.97]\times 0.88\\=0.03\times 0.88\\=0.0264$

Compute the probability that a randomly selected person is tested negative but does not have the disease as follows:

$P(X^{c}\cap D^{c})=P(X^{c}|D^{c})P(D^{c})\\=[1-P(X|D)]\times{1- P(D)]\\=0.99\times 0.12\\=0.1188$

Compute the probability that a randomly selected person is tested negative as follows:

$P(X^{c})=P(X^{c}\cap D)+P(X^{c}\cap D^{c})$

$=0.0264+0.1188\\=0.1452$

Thus, the probability of the test indicating that the person does not have the disease is 0.1452.

HURRY!!!!!!!!!!!!! 20PTS!!!! AND BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The roots of a function are the x-intercepts. By definition, the y-coordinate of points lying on the x-axis is zero. Therefore, to find the roots of a quadratic function, we set f (x) = 0, and solve the equation, ax2 + bx + c = 0.
