It seems it should be the other way... . How soon will the puppy catch up with the kitten.

The way you have it the kitten will never catch the pup. There is already 180m between them so, the distance will only increase because the puppy runs faster than the cat.

If the puppy runs after the cat, will eventually catch up with it and can be calculated. Not the other way around.

If the pup runs after the cat, the distance between them will decrease and the pup will catch the cat.

RT = D kitten

RT = D+180 puppy

20T = D

25T = D + 180

Substitution

25T = 20T +180

5T = 180

T = 36s

A certain disease occurs most frequently among older women. Of all age groups, women in their 60s have the highest rate of breas
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The probability that a woman in her 60s has breast cancer given that she gets a positive mammogram is 0.0276.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a set be events that have occurred be denoted as:

S = {A₁, A₂, A₃,..., Aₙ}

The Bayes' theorem states that the conditional probability of an event, say <em>A</em>ₙ given that another event, say <em>X</em> has already occurred is given by:

P(A_{n}|X)=\frac{P(X|A_{n})P(A_{n})}{\sum\limits^{n}_{i=1}{P(X|A_{i})P(A_{i})}}

The disease Breast cancer is being studied among women of age 60s.

Denote the events as follows:

<em>B</em> = a women in their 60s has breast cancer

+ = the mammograms detects the breast cancer

The information provided is:

P(B) = 0.0312\\P(+|B)=0.81\\P(+|B^{c})=0.92

Compute the value of P (B|+) using the Bayes' theorem as follows:

P(B|+)=\frac{P(+|B)P(B)}{P(+|B)P(B)+P(+|B^{c})P(B^{c})}

            =\frac{(0.81\times 0.0312)}{(0.81\times 0.0312)+(0.92\times (1-0.0312)}\\

            =\frac{0.025272}{0.025272+0.891296}

            =0.02757\\\approx0.0276

Thus, the probability that a woman in her 60s has breast cancer given that she gets a positive mammogram is 0.0276.

The sum of a number and five is at least 5?
Juli2301 [7.4K]
Hello! For this type of problem, the sum is addition. Therefore, you add n and 5. The inequality for this question would be n + 5 >= 5. At least would mean a greater than or equal to symbol. If you need the answer as the value of n, n >= 0.
