Deer ticks can be carriers of either Lyme disease or human granulocytic ehrlichiosis (HGE). Based on a recent study, suppose tha

t of all ticks in a certain location carry Lyme disease, carry HGE, and of the ticks that carry at least one of these diseases in fact carry both of them. If a randomly selected tick is found to have carried HGE, what is the probability that the selected tick is also a carrier of Lyme disease?

Answer:

There is a 100% probability that the selected tick is also a carrier of Lyme disease.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem states that:

Of the ticks that carry at least one of these diseases in fact carry both of them.

So, if a tick carries one of these diseases, there is a 100% probability that is carries another.

What is the probability that the selected tick is also a carrier of Lyme disease?

There is a 100% probability that the selected tick is also a carrier of Lyme disease.

If 12000 people voted in the election,how many people were from 50 to 64 years old
inessss [21]
Assuming that this question is based on a graph, and that this graph tells us that people 50-64 years make up 35% of all the voters, then it would mean that
35%of 12000=\frac{35}{100} *12000=35*120=4200

So, assuming that people at age 50-64 make up 35% of the voters, then 4200 of them voted.

Equation of the parabola in vertex form that passes through (4,-7) and has a vertex of (1,-6)
Alina [70]

y = -\frac{1}{9}(x - 1)^2 - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of the equation for a parabola is given by

y = a(x - h)^2 + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the parabola's vertex. Since the vertex is at (1, -6), we can write the equation as

y = a(x - 1)^2 - 6

Also, since the parabola passes through (4, -7), we can use this to find the value for a:

-7 = a(4 - 1)^2 - 6 \Rightarrow -7 = 9a - 6

or

a = -\frac{1}{9}

Therefore, the equation of the parabola is

y = -\frac{1}{9}(x - 1)^2 - 6
