Answer:
The overall probability of type II diabetes among 40- to 59-year-olds in Houston is 9.3%.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have these following rates of type II diabetes:
7% among Caucasians
10% among African-Americans
12% among Hispanics
5% among Asian-Americans.
The ethnic distribution of Houston is:
30% Caucasian
25% African-American
40% Hispanic
5% Asian-American
What is the overall probability of type II diabetes among 40- to 59-year-olds in Houston?
is the probability of finding a Caucasian with type II diabetes in Houston. So it is 7% of 30%.
is the probability of finding an African-American with type II diabetes in Houston. So it is 10% of 25%.
is the probability of finding a Hispanic with type II diabetes in Houston. So it is 12% of 40%.
is the probability of finding an Asian-American with type II diabetes in Houston. So it is 5% of 5%.
The overall probability of type II diabetes among 40- to 59-year-olds in Houston is 9.3%.
Answer:
(- 2, 15 ) and (2, 7 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = 3x² - 2x - 1 → (1)
2x + y = 11 → (2) ← subtract 2x from both sides
y = 11 - 2x → (3)
Substitute y = 3x² - 2x - 1 into (3)
3x² - 2x - 1 = 11 - 2x ( subtract 11 - 2x from both sides )
3x² - 12 = 0 ( add 12 to both sides )
3x² = 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x² = 4 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ± = ± 2
Substitute these values into (3) for corresponding values of y
x = - 2 : y = 11 - 2(- 2) = 11 + 4 = 15 ⇒ (- 2, 15 )
x = 2 : y = 11 - 2(2) = 11 - 4 = 7 ⇒ (2, 7 )
