Answer:
Correct option: (a) 0.1452
Step-by-step explanation:
The new test designed for detecting TB is being analysed.
Denote the events as follows:
<em>D</em> = a person has the disease
<em>X</em> = the test is positive.
The information provided is:

Compute the probability that a person does not have the disease as follows:

The probability of a person not having the disease is 0.12.
Compute the probability that a randomly selected person is tested negative but does have the disease as follows:
![P(X^{c}\cap D)=P(X^{c}|D)P(D)\\=[1-P(X|D)]\times P(D)\\=[1-0.97]\times 0.88\\=0.03\times 0.88\\=0.0264](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%28X%5E%7Bc%7D%5Ccap%20D%29%3DP%28X%5E%7Bc%7D%7CD%29P%28D%29%5C%5C%3D%5B1-P%28X%7CD%29%5D%5Ctimes%20P%28D%29%5C%5C%3D%5B1-0.97%5D%5Ctimes%200.88%5C%5C%3D0.03%5Ctimes%200.88%5C%5C%3D0.0264)
Compute the probability that a randomly selected person is tested negative but does not have the disease as follows:
![P(X^{c}\cap D^{c})=P(X^{c}|D^{c})P(D^{c})\\=[1-P(X|D)]\times{1- P(D)]\\=0.99\times 0.12\\=0.1188](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%28X%5E%7Bc%7D%5Ccap%20D%5E%7Bc%7D%29%3DP%28X%5E%7Bc%7D%7CD%5E%7Bc%7D%29P%28D%5E%7Bc%7D%29%5C%5C%3D%5B1-P%28X%7CD%29%5D%5Ctimes%7B1-%20P%28D%29%5D%5C%5C%3D0.99%5Ctimes%200.12%5C%5C%3D0.1188)
Compute the probability that a randomly selected person is tested negative as follows:


Thus, the probability of the test indicating that the person does not have the disease is 0.1452.
The slope can sometimes be called the gradient, and the equation for the gradient is (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1). So therefore, you'd do: (-8 - 7)/(4 - -5) which is (-15)/9) which is -1 2/3 or -1.6 (recurring), which is your answer. I hope this helps! Let me know if I've confused you :)
-8/10,-12/15,-16/20,-20/25,-24/30,etc.
I believe the answer would be: 4.7.9.11.13.15.17
