Nuetrik [128]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A.) 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First change the equation to 2 + ( - 8x ) = -6 so it’s easier to read

Take away 2 from both sides

So now you have -8x = -8

Divide both sides by -8 so you get positive x and 1

x = 1

An oblique cylinder has a radius of 10 meters and a volume of 2,500 cubic meters. Use Cavalieri’s Principle to solve for the hei
shusha [124]
The idea of the Cavalieri's Principle states that even if the cylinder is oblique, so long as the planes in the figure are parallel, the equation would still be equal to,
                               V = Bh = πr²h
Substituting,
                               2,500 = π(10 m)²h
                                     h = 7.95 m
The answer should be 5 meters.

Consider the probabilities of people taking pregnancy tests. Assume that the true probability of pregnancy for all people who ta
Valentin [98]

Using conditional probability, it is found that there is a 0.8462 = 84.62% probability that a woman who gets a positive test result is truly pregnant.

<h3>What is Conditional Probability?</h3>

Conditional probability is the probability of one event happening, considering a previous event. The formula is:

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which

  • P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
  • P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.
  • P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this problem, the events are:

  • Event A: Positive test result.
  • Event B: Pregnant.

The probability of a positive test result is composed by:

  • 99% of 10%(truly pregnant).
  • 2% of 90%(not pregnant).

Hence:

P(A) = 0.99(0.1) + 0.02(0.9) = 0.117

The probability of both a positive test result and pregnancy is:

P(A \cap B) = 0.99(0.1)

Hence, the conditional probability is:

P(B|A) = \frac{0.99(0.1)}{0.117} = 0.8462

0.8462 = 84.62% probability that a woman who gets a positive test result is truly pregnant.
