Answer:

C) 2parts that are one eight each.

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason I chose C) as the correct answer is becasue I evaluated it with the steps below.

A) - 8 parts that are one fourth each.

This cannot be correct because it would surpase the 2/8ths (would be over).

B) - 4 parts that are one-half each.

This cannot be correct because it would surpass the 2/8ths (would be over).

C) - 2parts that are one eight each.

This can be correct because 2 parts have 1/8th. 1/8 + 1/8 = 2/8.

D) - 2parts that are one fourth each.

This cannot be correct because the denominator is not 8, it is 4 meaning it wouldn't fit into the format the question asked for (which was 2/8).

This makes the correct answer C).

I hope this helps you understand and helps you in your question.

I need help with this ASAP!!!!!

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

∠DBC+∠VBC is 180° since it is a straight line, ∠VBC=20x+5

The sum of all angles in a triangle is 180°, 9x-2 + 40° +∠DBC=180°

To find x, you can find ∠DBC first. *Don't forget BRACKETS

∠DBC=180-(20x+5)

∠DBC=180-(9x-2 + 40°)

Now equal the equations to each other to find x.

180-(20x+5)=180-(40+9x-2)

180-20x-5=180-40-9x+2

175-20x=142-9x

175-142=20x-9x

33=11x

x=33/11

∴x=3

Can someone please help me with this I’ve tried so many times and I’m struggling

True [87]

Answer:

F is independent, g is dependent.

You can tell that because of the second sentence: "the number of frames she has determines the number of gifts she can create." So the number of gifts, g is dependent of F, and F is independent.

18) What value of x makes R(x) = 10

Illusion [34]

<h3>Two Answers: x = 2 and x = 10</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

Draw a horizontal line through 10 on the y axis. This is because R(x) = 10 is the same as y = 10. The output of the function is the y value.

See the diagram below.

The horizontal line crosses the parabola at two locations. From those points, draw a vertical line straight down to the x axis. Note how we land at x = 2 and x = 10. This means that R(2) = 10 and R(10) = 10.

Suppose that one person in 10,000 people has a rare genetic disease. There is an excellent test for the disease; 98.8% of the pe

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

A)The probability that someone who tests positive has the disease is 0.9995

B)The probability that someone who tests negative does not have the disease is 0.99999

Step-by-step explanation:

Let D be the event that a person has a disease

Let $D^c$ be the event that a person don't have a disease

Let A be the event that a person is tested positive for that disease.

P(D|A) = Probability that someone has a disease given that he tests positive.

We are given that There is an excellent test for the disease; 98.8% of the people with the disease test positive

So, P(A|D)=probability that a person is tested positive given he has a disease = 0.988

We are also given that one person in 10,000 people has a rare genetic disease.

So, $P(D)=\frac{1}{10000}$

Only 0.4% of the people who don't have it test positive.

$P(A|D^c)$ = probability that a person is tested positive given he don't have a disease = 0.004

$P(D^c)=1-\frac{1}{10000}$

Formula: $P(D|A)=\frac{P(A|D)P(D)}{P(A|D)P(D^c)+P(A|D^c)P(D^c)}$

$P(D|A)=\frac{0.988 \times \frac{1}{10000}}{0.988 \times (1-\frac{1}{10000}))+0.004 \times (1-\frac{1}{10000})}$

P(D|A)= $\frac{2470}{2471}$ =0.9995

P(D|A)= $0.9995$

A)The probability that someone who tests positive has the disease is 0.9995

(B)

$P(D^c|A^c)$ =probability that someone does not have disease given that he tests negative

$P(A^c|D^c)$ =probability that a person tests negative given that he does not have disease =1-0.004

=0.996

$P(A^c|D)$ =probability that a person tests negative given that he has a disease =1-0.988=0.012

Formula: $P(D^c|A^c)=\frac{P(A^c|D^c)P(D^c)}{P(A^c|D^c)P(D^c)+P(A^c|D)P(D)}$

$P(D^c|A^c)=\frac{0.996 \times (1-\frac{1}{10000})}{0.996 \times (1-\frac{1}{10000})+0.012 \times \frac{1}{1000}}$

$P(D^c|A^c)=0.99999$

B)The probability that someone who tests negative does not have the disease is 0.99999
