You are working in a primary care office. Flu season is starting. For the sake of public health, it is critical to diagnose peop

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

E. 0.11

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

A 10% probability that a person has the flu.

A 90% probability that a person does not have the flu, just a cold.

If a person has the flu, a 99% probability of having a runny nose.

If a person just has a cold, a 90% probability of having a runny nose.

This can be formulated as the following problem:

What is the probability of B happening, knowing that A has happened.

It can be calculated by the following formula

$P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)}$

Where P(B) is the probability of B happening, P(A/B) is the probability of A happening knowing that B happened and P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this problem, we have that:

What is the probability that a person has the flu, given that she has a runny nose?

P(B) is the probability that a person has the flu. So P(B) = 0.1.

P(A/B) is the probability that a person has a runny nose, given that she has the flu. So P(A/B) = 0.99.

P(A) is the probability that a person has a runny nose. It is 0.99 of 0.1 and 0.90 of 0.90. So

$P(A) = 0.99*0.1 + 0.9*0.9 = 0.909$

What is the probability that this person has the flu?

$P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.1*0.99}{0.909} = 0.1089 = 0.11$

The correct answer is:

E. 0.11

A couch and coffee table cost a total of $1080. The cost of the couch is two times the cost of the coffee table. Find the cost o

Alborosie

Answer:

$720

$360

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of couch be A and that of coffee table be B

Given couch and coffee table cost $1080

That’s

A + B = $1080

Also, the cost of couch A is 2 times the cost of coffeee table B.

That’s

A = 2B

We now have two equations

A + B = 1080

A = 2B

Now ,substitute 2B for A in the first equation .

We have

A + B = 1080

2B + B = 1080

3B = 1080

Divide both sides by 3

3B/3 = 1080/3

B = 360

The coffee table cost $360

Remember A = 2B

Therefore

A = 2 x $360

A = $720

The couch cost $720 while the coffee table cost $360
