It is estimated that approximately 10.5% of Americans are afflicted with diabetes. Suppose that a new diagnostic test is being c

hecked for its accuracy. When the test is given to adults over 40 who have diabetes, it marks 95% positive for the disease (this is a correct diagnosis). When the test is given to adults over 40 who do not have diabetes, it marks 3.5% positive for the disease (this is an incorrect diagnosis). Round your final answers to three decimal places.

Answer:

0.03

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage of americans with diabetes = 10.5% = 0.105

Percentage of americans without diabetes = 89.5% = 0.895

Adults over 40 with diabetes tested positive = 95% = 0.95

Adults over 40 with diabetes tested negative = 5% = 0.05

Adults over 40 without diabetes tested positive = 3.5% = 0.035

Adults over 40 without diabetes tested negative = 96.5% = 0.965

The probability of selecting an adult over 40 without diabetes but positive diagnosis;

     = 0.895 * 0.035

     = 0.031325

     = 0.03

1/8 divided by 3/4 please help
dlinn [17]
1/8 divided by 3/4 is (1/8) / (3/4). When you divide fractions, you flip the 2nd number and change the divide into multiply. So (1/8)*(4/3). Multiply top by top and bottom by bottom to get 4/24. That simplifies to 1/6

Yanka [14]
So, it depends. Imma give you two answers, all of which are the same at the end. They just have different ways to do it.

1. So, it's<span> $9 per hour, or $9 per 60 min </span>
<span>You can write a ratio: 9/60 = n/1 </span>
<span>In this case you have to divide 9 by 60 cause
60/60 = 1 </span>
<span>And n=0.15 </span>
<span>Answer: you earn 15 cents per min. 

2.</span><span>$9 = 900 cents </span>
<span>900 cents divided by 60 minutes = 15 cents in a minute.

Hope this helps love!! :)</span>
