Answer:

0.5885

Step-by-step explanation:

The possible ways for a test to be positive are:

- Woman is pregnant & true positive

- Woman is not pregnant & false positive

The probability of a positive is:

P(+) = 0.07*0.95+(1-0.07)*(1-0.95)\\P(+)=0.113

Therefore, the probability that a woman is actually pregnant given that she tested positive is:

P(P|+) = \frac{0.95*0.07}{0.113}\\P(P|+) = 0.5885

The probability is 0.5885

6) You are shooting the puck along the path
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

m = 58°

x = 64°

Step-by-step explanation:

When a puck touches one side of the air hockey table,

All the angles formed are located at a point on a straight line.

Therefore, sum of angles formed is 180°.

m° + m° + 64° = 180°

2m + 64 = 180

2m = 180 - 64

2m = 116

m = 58°

m∠y = m = 58° [Alternate interior angles]

Similarly, on the other side of the table,

58° + y° + x° = 180°

58° + 58° + x° = 180°

x + 116° = 180°

x = 180 - 116

x = 64°

The two-dimensional net of a rectangular prism is shown at the left. What is the prism’s surface area? square units
Tasya [4]

Answer:

28 units²  

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that your net has the dimensions shown below.

Its area is

2 yellow rectangles = 2(4 × 2) = 2 × 8 = 16 units²

2 grey rectangles    =  2(4 × 1) = 2 × 4  =  8 units²

2 green rectangles  = 2(2 × 1)  = 2 × 2  = <u> 4 units²</u>

                                                 TOTAL = 28 units²

The prism's surface area is 28 units².

Ok So I an taking algebra 1 and this question is really confusing me.
V125BC [204]
You use the arithmetic sequence formula and input the information given to you.
tn = a + (n-1)d
t(56) is what your looking for so don't worry about the tn.
a is your first term,
a = 15.
n is the position of the term you are looking for, n = 56.
And d is the common difference, you find this by taking t2 and subtracting t1. t2=18 and t1=15.
d = 18 - 15 = 3
Inputting it all into the formula you get,
t(56) = 15 + (56-1)(3)
term 56 = 180.
You use this formula to find any term in a sequence provided you are given enough info. You can also manipulate it if you are asked to find something else like the first term(a), common difference(d) or term position(n). It just depends on what the question is asking and what information you are given. :)
Hope this helps!

Combine as indicated by the signs. 8-y/3y + y+2/9y - 2/6y
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

26 + y

----------

   9y


Step-by-step explanation:

Your using parentheses here would remove a great deal of ambiguity.  Looking at your 8-y/3y + y+2/9y - 2/6y, I have interpreted it to mean:

(8-y)/3y + (y+2)/9y - (2/6)y.  For example, without parentheses, your 8-y/3y might be interpreted differently, as 8   -   y/(3y), or 8 - 1/3.

Looking at (8-y)/3y + (y+2)/9y - (2/6)y again, we see three different denominators:  3y, 9y and 6 y.  The LCD here is 9y.  Multiplying all three terms of  (8-y)/3y + (y+2)/9y - (2/6)y by the LCD, we get:

3(8-y) + (y+2) + 3y.  We must now divide this by the LCD:

3(8-y) + (y+2) + 3y

--------------------------

            9y

Next we need to perform the indicated multiplication:

24 - 3y + y + 2 + 3y

----------------------------

            9y

and then to combine like terms:

24 + 2 - 3y + y + 3y,           26 + y

----------------------------   or    -----------

              9y                             9y
