Answer:

-51
-30
-60
2 or -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The function puts a minus sign on 3 times the magnitude of the input.

1. y = -|3×17| = -51

2. y = -|3×10| = -30

3. y = -|3×20| = -60

4. -6 = -|3x|

2 = |x| . . . . divide by -3

x = ±2 . . . . two possibilities

A common blood test performed on pregnant women to screen for chromosome abnormalities in the fetus measures the human chorionic

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

(a) The proportion of women who are tested, get a negative test result is 0.82.

(b) The proportion of women who get a positive test result are actually carrying a fetus with a chromosome abnormality is 0.20.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Bayes' theorem states that the conditional probability of an event E $_{i}$ , of the sample space S, given that another event A has already occurred is:

$P(E_{i}|A)=\frac{P(A|E_{i})P(E_{i})}{\sum\liits^{n}_{i=1}{P(A|E_{i})P(E_{i})}}$

The law of total probability states that, if events E₁, E₂, E₃... are parts of a sample space then for any event A,

$P(A)=\sum\limits^{n}_{i=1}{P(A|B_{i})P(B_{i})}$

Denote the events as follows:

X = fetus have a chromosome abnormality.

Y = the test is positive

The information provided is:

$P(X)=0.04\\P(Y|X)=0.90\\P(Y^{c}|X^{c})=0.85$

Using the above the probabilities compute the remaining values as follows:

$P(X^{c})=1-P(X)=1-0.04=0.96$

$P(Y^{c}|X)=1-P(Y|X)=1-0.90=0.10$

$P(Y|X^{c})=1-P(Y^{c}|X^{c})=1-0.85=0.15$

(a)

Compute the probability of women who are tested negative as follows:

Use the law of total probability:

$P(Y^{c})=P(Y^{c}|X)P(X)+P(Y^{c}|X^{c})P(X^{c})$

$=(0.10\times 0.04)+(0.85\times 0.96)\\=0.004+0.816\\=0.82$

Thus, the proportion of women who are tested, get a negative test result is 0.82.

(b)

Compute the value of P (X|Y) as follows:

Use the Bayes' theorem:

$P(X|Y)=\frac{P(Y|X)P(X)}{P(Y|X)P(X)+P(Y|X^{c})P(X^{c})}$

$=\frac{(0.90\times 0.04)}{(0.90\times 0.04)+(0.15\times 0.96)}$

$=0.20$

Thus, the proportion of women who get a positive test result are actually carrying a fetus with a chromosome abnormality is 0.20.

If (1, y) is on the graph, then y = ____________ a0.

Debora [2.8K]

If y = -x + 7, and (-1,y) is on the graph, then the following is true: y=-(-1) + 7, or y=8.

Thus, y = a0 = 8.
