49 %

465 + 485 = 950

465/950 = .489

.489 * 100 = 48.9, round up for 49 to get 49%, since it's only focused on people who tested positive, you would only have to compare the people in that column

Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected person who is tested positive is vaccinated is:

0.4895

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a two-way frequency table that represents the result of a recent study on the effectiveness of the flu vaccine.

The table is as follows:

                                  Pos.              Neg.                Total

Vaccinated                465                771                   1236

Not vaccinated         485                 600                 1085  

Total                           950               1371                   2321

Now we are asked to find the probability that a randomly selected person who tested positive for the flu is vaccinated.

Let A denote the event that the person is tested positive.

Let B denote the vent that he/she is vaccinated.

A∩B denote the event that the person tested positive is vaccinated.

Let P denote the probability of an event.

We are asked to find:

P(B|A)

We know that:

P(B|A)=\dfrac{P(A\bigcap B)}{P(A)}

From the table we have:

P(A\bigcap B)=\dfrac{465}{2321}

and

P(A)=\dfrac{950}{2321}

Hence,

P(B|A)=\dfrac{\dfrac{465}{2321}}{\dfrac{950}{2321}}\\\\P(B|A)=\dfrac{465}{950}\\\\P(B|A)=0.4895

Hence, the probability is:

0.4895

Choose the product. -6p3(3p2 + 5p - 1) -18p5 - 30p4 + 6p3 -18p6 - 30p3 - 6p 18p3 + 6p2 - 30p4 -18p6 - 24p3
wlad13 [49]
-6p^3(3p^2 +5p -1) = -18p^5 -30p^4 +6p^3

so this is the right answer sure

A city of 6,688 has an area of 16 square miles. What is the population density of the city?
Ahat [919]
To find population density, it is population / area.

The population is 6688, divided by the area of 16.

6688/16 = 418

So the population density is 418 people per sq mile.
