Answer:

a = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

a = 18

b = 3

This is a direct proportion question.

Therefore, a is directly proportional to b.

Mathematically, a = kb

First of all we would find the constant, k;

k = a/b

k = 18/3

k = 6

Now to find the value of a when b = 5

a = kb

a = 6*5

a = 30

On any given day, the probability that a large local river is polluted by carbon tetrachloride is 0.12. Each day, a test is cond
babymother [125]

Answer:

a) 0.2416

b) 0.4172

c) 0.0253

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the result of the test should be independent of the time , then the that the test number of times that test proves correct is independent of the days the river is correct .

denoting event a A=the test proves correct and B=the river is polluted

a) the test indicates pollution when

- the river is polluted and the test is correct

- the river is not polluted and the test fails

then

P(test indicates pollution)= P(A)*P(B)+ (1-P(A))*(1-P(B)) = 0.12*0.84+0.88*0.16 = 0.2416

b) according to Bayes

P(A∩B)= P(A/B)*P(B) → P(A/B)=P(A∩B)/P(B)

then

P(pollution exists/test indicates pollution)=P(A∩B)/P(B) = 0.84*0.12 / 0.2416 = 0.4172

c) since

P(test indicates no pollution)= P(A)*(1-P(B))+ (1-P(A))*P(B) = 0.84*0.88+  0.16*0.12 = 0.7584

the rate of false positives is

P(river is polluted/test indicates no pollution) = 0.12*0.16 / 0.7584 = 0.0253
