Solution:
Population in the city= 10,000
As genetic condition affects 8% of the population.
8 % of 10,000
As, it is also given that, there is an error rate of 1% for condition (i.e., 1% false negatives and 1% false positives).
So, 1% false negatives means out of 800 tested who are found affected , means there are chances that 1% who was found affected are not affected at all.
So, 1% of 800
Also, 1% false positives means out of 10,000 tested,[10,000-800= 9200] who are found not affected , means there are chances that 1% who was found not affected can be affected also.
So, 1% of 9200
1. Has condition Does not have condition totals = 800
2. Test positive =92
3. Test negative =8
4. Total =800 +92 +8=900
5. Probability (as a percentage) that a person has the condition if he or she tests positive= As 8% are found positive among 10,000 means 9200 are not found affected.But there are chances that out of 9200 , 1% may be affected
that is Probability equal to 0.01 or 1%.
Answer : The substances half life in days is, 5.6 days.
Step-by-step explanation :
Half life : It is defined as the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.
All radioactive decays follow first order kinetics.
The relation between the half-life and rate constant is:
where,
k = rate constant = 0.1235 per days
= half-life
Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:
Thus, the substances half life in days is, 5.6 days.
