Answer:
- probability of a false positive test result = 0.010
- The non-drug user will suffer from the result since it is positive
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability that the test result is a false positive
total number of cases studied (n) = 38 + 12 + 19 + 29 = 98
number of false positive cases ( x ) = 1
probability of false positive result = x / n = 1/98 = 0.010
The non-drug user will suffer from the result since it is positive
Answer: You will have points plotted at +3 on the y axis, and +3 on the x axis.
The attachment shows what your graph should look like.
Step-by-step explanation:
The intercept is where the graphed line crosses an axis.
To find the y-intercept, substitute 0 for x and solve for y:
0 + y = 3. Subtracting 0, you have y = 3
So you can plot a point at +3 on the y axis.
To find the x- intercept, substitute 0 for y, and solve for x
x + 0 = 3 Again, subtracting 0, x = 3
So plot a point on the x-axis at +3
Use the line tool to connect the two points.
140 tickets sold at the door
Step by Step Explanation:
x = tickets sold in advance
y = tickets sold at the door
We use the formula ax+by=c and a+b=c
x + y = 514
17x + 20y = 9158
y = 514 - x
17x + 20(514 - x)
17x + 10,280 - 20x = 9,158
-3x + 10,280 = 9,158
-3x = -11222
x = 374
This is for tickets sold in advance so we need to find y
374 + y = 514
y = 140
140 tickets were sold at the door
