A. <span>the probability of a false negative test results 
This corresponds to
P (false | negative) = P (false) x P (negative)
= (1 - P(true)) (1 - P(positive))
= (1 - 0.75)(1 - 0.88)
= 0.03

b. </span><span>he probability of a false positive test result
= (1  - 0.75) (0.88)
= 0.22</span><span />

Since many of these cities had also suffered widespread destruction during the war, they required rebuilding, which was often undertaken according to the socialist ideals promoted by Soviet communism.

A is wrong because, although many Latin American countries experienced aggressive communist insurgencies or takeovers, the communist presence in Latin America rarely resulted in the <span>centralized re-planning of cities.
</span>

Cab someone please explain how I can balance this chemical equation?

I’m pretty sure. It’s been a while since I did this in chemistry so don’t take my word for it but I’m pretty sure that’s how!

He made a telescope that could magnify
up to 30 times.
<span>He discovered that Copernicus' theory </span>
was true. "We're not the center of the universe."
He found out that the planets orbit the
sun in ellipses (oval shapes).
He explained how the tides were made by the moon.
He figured out that the speed of the planets depend on the sun.

Halley discovered a comet. It was discovered in 1705. It will come around again in 2061
