Answer:

h = 400 ft

The bird is 400 ft above the submarine

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

The submarine is 300 feet below sea level

Vertical distance between submarine and sea level h1 = 300 feet

The bird is flying at 100 feet above sea level

Vertical distance between the sea level and the bird h2 = 100 feet

The total vertical distance between the bird and the submarine is the sum of the vertical distance between submarine and sea level and the vertical distance between the sea level and the bird.

h = h1 + h2

h = 300 ft + 100 ft

h = 400 ft

The bird is 400 ft above the submarine

You just find out what the missing variable is by subtracting 88 from 107 on the first one. You do the same for the last too as-well, but just insert the numbers that they say.

Happy Friday!!

A certain virus infects one in every 300 people. A test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 90% of the time when t

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

a) P[A/B] = 0,019 or P[A/B] = 1,9 %

b) P[A- /B-] = 0,9996 or P[A- /B-] = 99,96 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Bayes Theorem :

P[A/B] = P(A) * P[B/A] / P(B)

The branches of events are as follows

Condition 1 real infection 1/300 and not infection 299/300

Then

1.- 1/300 299/300

When the test is done (virus present) 0,9 (+) 0,15 (-)

2.- 299/300

When the test is done ( no virus ) 0,15 (+) 0,85 (-)

Then:

P(A) = event person infected P(B) = person test positive

a) P[A/B] = P(A) * P[B/A] / P(B)

where P(A) = 1/300 = 0,0033 P[B/A] = 0,9

Then P(A) * P[B/A] = 0,0033*0,9 = 0,00297

P(B) is ( 1/300 )*0,9 + (299/300)*0,15

P(B) = 0,0033*0,9 + 0,9966*0,15 ⇒ P(B) = 0,1524

Finally

P[A/B] = 0,00297 /0,1524

P[A/B] = 0,019 or P[A/B] = 1,9 %

b) Following sames steps:

P[A- /B-] = (299/300) * 0,85 / (299/300) * 0,85 + (1/300 * 0,1)

P[A- /B-] = 0,8471 /0,8474

P[A- /B-] = 0,9996 or P[A- /B-] = 99,96 %
