On discovering that her family had a 70% risk of heart attack, Erin took a treadmill test to check her own potential of having a

heart attack. The doctors told her that the reliability of the stress test is 67%. The test predicted that Erin will not have a heart attack. What is the probability after the test was taken that she will have a heart attack?

Answer:

C.  0.4653

Step-by-step explanation:

This a conditional probability problem where Bayes theorem should be applied.

Applying Bayes theorem,

P(\text{No heart attack}\ |\ \text{Correctly tested})=

\dfrac{P(\text{Correctly tested}\ |\ \text{No heart attack})\cdot P(\text{No heart attack})}{P(\text{Correctly tested})}

P(\text{Correctly\ tested}\ |\ \text{No\ heart\ attack})=67\%=0.67

P(\text{No\ heart\ attack})=1-P(\text{heart\ attack})=1-0.7=0.3

P(\text{Correctly\ tested})=[P(\text{No\ heart\ attack})\times P(\text{Correctly\ tested})]+[P(\text{Heart\ attack})\times (\text{Incorrectly\ tested})]

=[0.3\times 0.67]+[0.7\times 0.33]=0.432

Putting the values,

P(\text{No\ heart\ attack}\ |\ \text{Correctly\ tested})=\dfrac{0.67\times 0.3}{0.432} =0.4653

There is a probability of 0.4653 or 46.53% chance that she will not have a heart attack even though the test predicts that she will.

The answer is A. (1, 4), because when the values are substituted in to the equations, you get 1 = 4 - 3 and 1 + 12 = 13, which are both correct. I hope this helps!

 Use what you've learned in this unit to model the population of Western
azamat

The population function of the Western Lowland Gorillas can either represent population growth or population decay

<h3>How to model the population</h3>

The question is incomplete, as the resources to model the population of the Western Lowland Gorillas are not given.

So, I will give a general explanation to solve the question

A population function can be represented as:

y = a(1 \pm r)^x

Where:

  • The initial population of the Western Lowland Gorillas is represented by (a)
  • The rate at which the population changes is represented by (r)
  • The number of years since 2022 is represented by (x)
  • The population in x years is represented by (y)

From the question, we understand that the population of the Western Lowland Gorillas decreases.

This means that the rate of the function would be an exponential decay i.e. 1 -r

Take for instance:

y = 2000 * 0.98^x

By comparison.

a = 2000 and 1 - r = 0.98

The above function can be used to model the population of the Western Lowland Gorillas

(-1,-9) because if we substituted 1 into x y would be 9 and if we substituted 1/2 into x y would be 3 but if we substituted -1 into x y would be 1/9 so therefore that value is incorrect
