Answer:

y= -6x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b

Slope is also known/substituted by the variable m. Therefore we can come to the conclusion that m=-6.

y=-6x+b

Y-intercepts are substituted with the variable b. Therefore we can substitute the 2 as b, meaning b=2.

Leaving you with the final answer of:

y= -6x+2

Suppose a particular type of cancer has a 0.9% incidence rate. Let D be the event that a person has this type of cancer, therefo
natita [175]

Answer:

There is a 12.13% probability that the person actually does have cancer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities.

A 0.9% probability of a person having cancer

A 99.1% probability of a person not having cancer.

If a person has cancer, she has a 91% probability of being diagnosticated.

If a person does not have cancer, she has a 6% probability of being diagnosticated.

The question can be formulated as the following problem:

What is the probability of B happening, knowing that A has happened.

It can be calculated by the following formula

P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)}

Where P(B) is the probability of B happening, P(A/B) is the probability of A happening knowing that B happened and P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this problem we have the following question

What is the probability that the person has cancer, given that she was diagnosticated?

So

P(B) is the probability of the person having cancer, so P(B) = 0.009

P(A/B) is the probability that the person being diagnosticated, given that she has cancer. So P(A/B) = 0.91

P(A) is the probability of the person being diagnosticated. If she has cancer, there is a 91% probability that she was diagnosticard. There is also a 6% probability of a person without cancer being diagnosticated. So

P(A) = 0.009*0.91 + 0.06*0.991 = 0.06765

What is the probability that the person actually does have cancer?

P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.91*0.009}{0.0675} = 0.1213

There is a 12.13% probability that the person actually does have cancer.

Find a formula for the described function. A rectangle has perimeter 16 m. Express the area A of the rectangle as a function of
Alex17521 [72]
Part A:

Let the length of one of the sides of the rectangle be L, then the length of the other side is obtained as follow.

Let the length of the other side be x, then

2(L+x)=16 \\  \\ \Rightarrow L+x=8 \\  \\ \Rightarrow x=8-L

Thus, if the length of one of the side is x, the length of the other side is 8 - L.

Hence, the area of the rectangle in terms of L is given by

L(8 - L) = 8L-L^2



Part B:

To find the domain of A

Recall that the domain of a function is the set of values which can be assumed by the independent variable. In this case, the domain is the set of values that L can take.

Notice that the length of a side of a rectangle cannot be negative or 0, thus L cannot be 8 as 8 - 8 = 0 or any number greater than 8.

Hence the domain of the area are the set of values between 0 and 8 not inclusive.

Therefore,

dom(Area)=0\ \textless \ L\ \textless \ 8 \ or \ (0, 8)
