Suppose a particular type of cancer has a 0.9% incidence rate. Let D be the event that a person has this type of cancer, therefo

natita [175]

Answer:

There is a 12.13% probability that the person actually does have cancer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities.

A 0.9% probability of a person having cancer

A 99.1% probability of a person not having cancer.

If a person has cancer, she has a 91% probability of being diagnosticated.

If a person does not have cancer, she has a 6% probability of being diagnosticated.

The question 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 the following question

What is the probability that the person has cancer, given that she was diagnosticated?

So

P(B) is the probability of the person having cancer, so $P(B) = 0.009$

P(A/B) is the probability that the person being diagnosticated, given that she has cancer. So $P(A/B) = 0.91$

P(A) is the probability of the person being diagnosticated. If she has cancer, there is a 91% probability that she was diagnosticard. There is also a 6% probability of a person without cancer being diagnosticated. So

$P(A) = 0.009*0.91 + 0.06*0.991 = 0.06765$

What is the probability that the person actually does have cancer?

$P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.91*0.009}{0.0675} = 0.1213$

There is a 12.13% probability that the person actually does have cancer.

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

by Pythagoras theorem,

P²+B² =H²

5²+B²=13²

B²= 13²-5²

B²= 169-25

B²= 144

B=√144

B= 12

Clara is building a triangular garden. She wants the length of the longest side to be three more than twice as long as the lengt

nlexa [21]

The simplified expression would be 3s + 15.

In order to find this we need to write an equation for the longest side. Since it's 3 more than twice as much as the smallest side (s), we can express it as 2s + 3. Now we simply add all 3 together and simplify.

2s + 3 + 12 + s -----> simplify

3s + 15
