Answer:

0.62

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We assume, that the number 62 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.

3. If 62 is 100%, so we can write it down as 62=100%.

4. We know, that x is 1% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1%.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 62=100%

2) x=1%

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

62/x=100%/1%

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 1% of 62

62/x=100/1

(62/x)*x=(100/1)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

62=100*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (100) to get x

62/100=x

0.62=x

x=0.62

now we have:

1% of 62=0.62

A certain genetic condition affects 8% of the population in a city of 10,000. Suppose there is a test for the condition that has

enot [183]

Solution:

Population in the city= 10,000

As genetic condition affects 8% of the population.

8 % of 10,000

$=\frac{8}{100}\times 10,000=800$

As, it is also given that, there is an error rate of 1% for condition (i.e., 1% false negatives and 1% false positives).

So, 1% false negatives means out of 800 tested who are found affected , means there are chances that 1% who was found affected are not affected at all.

So, 1% of 800 $=\frac{1}{100}\times 800=8$

Also, 1% false positives means out of 10,000 tested,[10,000-800= 9200] who are found not affected , means there are chances that 1% who was found not affected can be affected also.

So, 1% of 9200 $=\frac{1}{100}\times 9200=92$

1. Has condition Does not have condition totals = 800

2. Test positive =92

3. Test negative =8

4. Total =800 +92 +8=900

5. Probability (as a percentage) that a person has the condition if he or she tests positive= As 8% are found positive among 10,000 means 9200 are not found affected.But there are chances that out of 9200 , 1% may be affected

$=\frac{\text{1 percent of 9200}}{9200}\\\\ \frac{\frac{1}{100}\times 9200}{9200}=\frac{92}{9200}\\\\ =0.01$

that is Probability equal to 0.01 or 1%.

Hey there!

A MAC, or Media Access Control, Address is a unique identifier that is assigned to devices connected to a network. It is 6-bytes, or 48-bits, in size. It follows the format MM:MM:MM:SS:SS:SS, where the first 3-bytes are the identification number of the manufacturer and the second 3-bytes are the serial number assigned by the manufacturer.

A stereo priced at $769 is on sale for 35 % off find the discount and the sale price

frozen [14]

$269.15 discount 499.85 sales price

Step-by-step explanation:

If the price is $769 it's off 35% you turn the percent into a decimal which is .35 then you multiply it by the price of $769. You then get $269.15 for the discount price and then you subtract the regular price $769 from the discount price which is $269.15. So you get $499.85 as your answer
