Applications of Probability Project: Zombie Apocalypse Adapted from "Are You Positive?" Learning Task in the Georgia Frameworks

Zombies are on the loose! A group of researchers wants to be able to detect those who have contracted the zombie virus before they turn into zombies. Those who test positive will be quarantined for two weeks. If they show no signs of being a zombie, they will be freed. They have developed a simple test where they swab the person's ear (mouth would be too dangerous). They gathered 200 people of which 50 were known to be have the zombie virus. Of those who had the virus, 48 tested positive. Of those who did not have the virus, 135 tested negative 1. Based on the data presented above, do you think the test for zombieism is effective at detecting future zombies. Why or why not?

Answer:

Yes, it is a very effective test, having almost a 100% detection rate you wouldn't need much to improve upon except testing multiple times.

What kind of slope is (6,-3)and (-4,-3)
Pavel [41]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = y2- y1/x2 - x1

Given

x1 = 6

y1 = -3

x2 = -4

y2 = -3

Slope = -3 -(-3) /-4 - 6

= -3 + 3 /-10

= 0/10

= 0

This means that the line of the slope is horizontal

Tpy6a [65]
What should denise do for her next step?

Answer: Out of all the options presented above the one that best represents the next step that denise should take after already using her straightedge and compass to construct the circle, lines, and arcs is to use the straightedge to draw line ac, line ad, line bc, and line bd. use the compass and straightedge to construct the bisector of ∠cpb∠cpb. Please see the attachment as reference to how it should look like once it is completed.

I hope it helps, Regards.
