Oh wait i got it give me a sec <span>To </span>calculate percentage<span> decrease: First: work out the difference (decrease) between the two numbers you are comparing. Then: divide the decrease by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. If your answer is a negative number then this is a </span>percentage<span> increase.</span>
Standard form for y+7=-2/5(x-10) is y=-7-2/5(x-10)
Nathan has an infection and he needs to be treated with penicillin
But there’s a 75% probability of him being allergic to penicillin
And to test if the skin reacts to penicillin, the test is 98% accuracy
So even if he has the allergy the test is only 98% accurate of identifying the allergy
Therefore we are asked to find the probability of both these events happening
Event 1 and event 2 both should happen then. When the ‘and’ function is used in probabilities then the probabilities of both events happening should be multiplied
Therefore probability that Nathan has the allergy and test predicts it is
= 75% x 98% = 0.735
The answer is D. 0.735
5x + 8 - 3x = 10
First you can combine the like terms.
5x - 3x + 8 = 10
2x + 8 = 10
- 8 - 8
2x = 2

x=1
