Answer:
The answer is 75 tests for 150 people.
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, with 150 people, we can divide into 15 groups; and the probability of disease is 0.04, there are 6 persons who possibly get disease.
Therefor, the maximum number of groups with an individual getting disease is 6. Then, 6 * 11 tests = 66 tests required.
15 groups - 6 groups with disease = 9 groups of negative with 9 tests.
In conclusion, there are 75 tests required.
Answer:
46 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
The numbers are "x" and "y",
we suggest this system of equations.
x+y=24
x-y=15
solve by reduction method.
x+y=24
x-y=15
-----------------
2x=39 ⇒x=39/2=19.5
x+y=24
-(x-y=15)
-------------------
2y=9 ⇒y=9/2=4.5
The numbers are 19.5 and 4.5
To check
19.5+4.5=24
19.5-4.5=15
Answer:
Explanation:
x - 7y = 7
-7y = -x + 7
y = (-1/-7)x + 7/-7
y = (1/7)x - 1
6x - 7y = -28
-7y = -6x - 28
y = (-6/-7)x - 28/-7
y = (6/7)x + 4
6(x+2)
you just factor 6 from the expression
hope this helps
