2y = 10
y = 10/2
y = 5 <==horizontal
this is a horizontal line. Anytime you have y = an integer, it is horizontal...and if u have x = an integer, it is a vertical line.
Distributive property, since 3(2x) you distribute and get 6x
Assuming the x stands for multiplication... follow the ordering rules:
First let's take care of the exponents. 4²=16 and (-6)²=36. At the same time I will add some spacing between the terms:
3x16 - 36 + 4 - 6x4
Now do the multiplications:
48 - 36 + 4 - 24
The rest is just addition and subtraction
48 - 36 + 4 - 24 = -8
Answer:
There is approximately 17% chance of a person not having a disease if he or she has tested positive.
Step-by-step explanation:
Denote the events as follows:
<em>D</em> = a person has contracted the disease.
+ = a person tests positive
- = a person tests negative
The information provided is:
Compute the missing probabilities as follows:
The Bayes' theorem states that the conditional probability of an event, say <em>A</em> provided that another event <em>B</em> has already occurred is:
Compute the probability that a random selected person does not have the infection if he or she has tested positive as follows:
So, there is approximately 17% chance of a person not having a disease if he or she has tested positive.
As the false negative rate of the test is 1%, this probability is not unusual considering the huge number of test done.
