William has clearly not studied. 

There are five choices for eight questions. The probability of getting a question right is 1 in 5 or 20%. The probability of getting all of them right is 0.00000256. The probability of him 6 or fewer questions correct is over 99% likely.

The tree diagram of the problem above is attached
There are four outcomes of the two events,

First test - Cancer, Second Test - Cancer, the probability is 0.0396
First test - Cancer, Second Test - No Cancer, the probability is 0.0004
First test -  No Cancer, Second Test - There is cancer, the probability is 0.0096
First test - No cancer, Second Test - No cancer, the probability is 0.9054

The probability of someone picked at random has cancer given that test result indicates cancer is  \frac{0.0396}{0.0396+0.0096}= \frac{33}{41}

The probability of someone picked at random has cancer given that test result indicates no cancer is \frac{0.0396}{0.0004+0.9504} = \frac{99}{2377}

What is the equation of the line that passes through the points given in the table
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

B: y = -2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 - 1 = -3

9 - 3 = 6

\frac{6}{-3} = -2

gradient = -2

3 = 1 x -2 + c

3 = -2 + c

5 = c

y intercept = 5

equation = y = -2x + 5
