Imagine that you have developed a genetic test to detect the dominant allele (A) that cause a rare genetic condition. As with mo

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Correct option: (B) 1.495%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the events as follows:

X = the test is positive.

A = a person with the dominant allele

The information given are:

$P(X|A)=1\\P (X|A^{c})=0.005\\P(A)=0.01$

According to the law of total probability the probability of an event A, conditional upon the occurrence of another event B is:

$P(A)=P(A|B)P(B)+P(A|B^{c})P(B^{c})$

Use this law to compute the probability of person having a positive result as follows:

$P(X)=P(X|A)P(A)+P(X|A^{c})P(A^{c})\\=(1\times0.01)+(0.005\times(1-0.01))\\=0.01+0.00495\\=0.01495$

The percentage of positive result is: 0.01495 × 100 = 1.495%.

Thus, the percentage of the population will give a positive test is 1.495%.

For which pair of triangles would you use AAS to prove the congruence of the 2 triangles

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to AAS congruence rule, two triangles are congruent if two angles and a non included side are congruent to corresponding angles and side of another triangle.

We need two angles and a non included side, to use AAS postulate.

In option A, two sides and their inclined angle are congruent, therefore these triangles are congruent by SAS postulate and option A is incorrect.

In option B, two angles and a non included side are congruent, therefore these triangles are congruent by AAS postulate and option B is correct.

In option C, two angles and their included side are congruent, therefore these triangles are congruent by ASA postulate and option C is incorrect.

In option D, all sides are congruent, therefore these triangles are congruent by SSS postulate and option D is incorrect.

Estimate the solution to the system of equations. asap, please!! I will mark for brain list

Darya [45]

Answer:

(1 $\frac{1}{3}$ , 2 $\frac{1}{3}$ )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

7x - y = 7 → (1)

x + 2y = 6 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by 2 and adding to (2) will eliminate the y- term

14x - 2y = 14 → (3)

Add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate y

15x = 20 ( divide both sides by 15 )

x = $\frac{20}{15}$ = $\frac{4}{3}$ = 1 $\frac{1}{3}$

Substitute this value of x into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting in (2)

$\frac{4}{3}$ + 2y = 6

2y = 6 - $\frac{4}{3}$ = $\frac{14}{3}$ ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = $\frac{7}{3}$ = 2 $\frac{1}{3}$
