0.3% of a country has a certain disease. The test for the disease has a sensitivity of 92% (i.e., of those we know have the dise

ase, the test comes back positive 92% of the time.) It has a specificity of 96% (i.e., of those who do NOT have the disease, the test comes back negative 96% of the time.) Determine the ACCURACY of this test (round to 5 decimals) Remember, ACCURACY is correct values (i.e. true positives true negatives)

Answer:

0.95988 (Accuracy of the test )

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the accuracy of this test we have to list out the given values

Prevalence rate of the disease = 0.3% = 0.003

sensitivity rate of the disease = 92% = 0.92

specificity rate for the test = 96% = 0.96

The accuracy of the test can be found using this equation

Accuracy = sensitivity * prevalence + specificity ( 1 - prevalence )

                = 0.92 * 0.003 + 0.96 ( 1 - 0.003 )

                = 0.00276 + 0.95712

                = 0.95988

Given csc A= 37/12 and that angle A is in Quadrant I, find the exact value of sec A in
vredina [299]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Below is the pic of how this would be set up in order to determine what it is you are looking for. The angle is set in QI, and since csc A is the reciprocal of sin, the ratio is hypotenuse over side opposite. Solve for the missing side using Pythagorean's Theorem:

37^2=12^2+b^2 and

1369 = 144 + b² and

1225 = b² so

b = 35

The sec ratio is the reciprocal of cos, so if cos is adjacent over hypotenuse, the sec is hypotenuse over adjacent, which is 37/35

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of the line is calculated by the formula:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\

We have the points ( -2 , 4) and (3 , -5) so plug in the values in the formula:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\m=\frac{-5-4}{3-(-2)}\\\\m=\frac{-9}{5}\\

so the slope(m) equals -9/5
