A test to detect an infection gives a positive result 98% of the time if a person is infected, and it is 97% accurate for people
Mrrafil [7]
The answer is c.) 2%. Since the question is talking about false negatives, meaning the chance that the results are false, then we take a look at the 98% which represents the chance of giving an accurate result for the people who are not infected meaning for those who are positive. Thus, the answer is 2% because this is the remaining percentage if 100-98%.

$600 , 8% , 1 month find the simple interest
Vlad [161]

Answer:

$4

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest = Principal *rate *time

S.I = P*r*t

Principal ; p = $600

rate ; r = 8% or 0.08 as a decimal

time; t = 1 month , however, convert this to years by dividing by 12;

t = 1 / 12

Next, plug in the numbers into the formula;

S.I = 600 *0.08*\frac{1}{12}

S.I = 4

Therefore simple interest in 1 month becomes $4

Which value of m will create a system of parallel lines with no solution? y=mx-6 8x-4y=12 A coordinate grid with one line labele
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

A system of parallel lines will be created where the two lines will never meet and have no common solution at a value of m = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the given line is 8·x - 4·y = 12

Which gives;

8·x- 12= 4·y

y = 2·x - 3

Given that the line passes through the points (0, -3) and (1, -1), we have;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

When (x₁, y₁) = (0. -3) and (x₂, y₂) = (1, -1), we have;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{(-1)-(-3)}{1-(0)} = 2

y - (-3) = 2×(x - 0)

y = 2·x - 3 which is the equation of the given line

For the lines 8·x - 4·y = 12, which is the sane as y = 2·x - 3 and the line y = m·x  - 6 to have no solution, the slope of the two lines should be equal that is m = 2

Given that the line passes through the point (1.5, 0), we have;

y - 0 = 2×(x - 1.5)  

y = 2·x - 3...................(1)

For the equation, y = m·x  - 6, when m = 2, we have;

y = 2·x  - 6..................(2)

Solving equations (1) and (2) gives;

2·x - 3 = 2·x  - 6, which gives;

2·x - 2·x=  - 3 - 6

0 = 9

Therefore, a system of parallel lines will be created where the two lines will never meet and have no common solution at a value of m = 2.
