Answer:

0.9295 = 92.95% probability of getting someone who tests negative, given that he or she did not have the disease.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this question:

11 + 145 = 156 people did not have the disease.

Out of those, 145 tested positive. So

p = \frac{145}{156} = 0.9295

0.9295 = 92.95% probability of getting someone who tests negative, given that he or she did not have the disease.

Three fair dice are rolled, one red, one green and one blue. What is the probability that the upturned faces of the three dice a
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:   \dfrac{5}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

When we throw a die , Total outcomes =6

When we throw 3 dice , Total outcomes = 6 x 6 x 6 = 216 [by fundamental counting principle]

Given : Three fair dice are rolled, one red, one green and one blue.

Favorable outcomes : When the upturned faces of the three dice are all of different numbers i.e. no repetition of numbers allowed

By Permutations , the number of favorable outcomes = ^6P_3=\dfrac{6!}{(6-3)!}=\dfrac{6!}{3!}=6\times5\times4=120

The probability that the upturned faces of the three dice are all of different numbers = \dfrac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

=\dfrac{120}{216}=\dfrac{5}{9}

The probability that the upturned faces of the three dice are all of different numbers  is \dfrac{5}{9} .
