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

Write the equation of the line that passes through the given point and is perpendicular to the given line
Bumek [7]

Answer:

  • y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The line x = 3 is parallel to y- axis, the perpendicular line is going to be parallel to x- axis and will have an equation:</u>

  • y = a

<u>Since it passes through the point (-2, 5), it will have a = 5:</u>

  • y = 5 is the line we need

Solve equation. <br><br> X^2-4x-12 = 0
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x2 - 4x - 12 = 0

x2 - 6x + 2x - 12= 0

x(x - 6) + 2(x - 6) = 0

x + 2 = 0

x = - 2

x - 6 = 0

x = 6
