Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

I warn you, I'm not positive I'm correct.

First I added 8+10+6 and got 24

I divided that by 3 and got 8

I divided 100 by 8 because if you cross multiply 1/8 and x/100 you would get 8x = 100

100 ÷ 8 = 12.5

So I got 12.5%

Using b=1+r, what does b=

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Adding 12 to the circle area is equal to the square area.

s2 = 12 + A

Where

s = side of square

A = area of circle

s2 = 12 + 36

s2 = 48

Solve this for s to get the side length

You are replacing the linoleum in a 14.5 by 12.5 kitchen, how many square feet of carpet should you buy

lana [24]

Answer:

The area of the room is 125 square feet because 12.5 times 10=125 square feet. As a result, you will spend $187.5 for it cost $1.5 to buy one square foot of carpet, and now we need 125 square feet to cover the room which 125 times 1.5 to get 187.5. Hope it help!

What is the probability that a random person who tests positive for a certain blood disease actually has the disease, if we know

xeze [42]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Any medical test used to detect certain sicknesses have several probabilities associated with their results.

Positive (test is +) ⇒ P(+)

True positive (test is + and the patient is sick) ⇒ P(+ ∩ S)

False-positive (test is + but the patient is healthy) ⇒P(+ ∩ H)

Negative (test is -) ⇒ P(-)

True negative (test is - and the patient is healthy) ⇒ P(- ∩ H)

False-negative (test is - but the patient is sick) ⇒ P(- ∩ S)

The sensibility of the test is defined as the capacity of the test to detect the sickness in sick patients (true positive rate).

⇒ P(+/S) = P(+ ∩ S)

P(S)

The specificity of the test is the capacity of the test to have a negative result when the patients are truly healthy (true negative rate)

⇒ P(-/H) = P(- ∩ H)

P(H)

For this particular blood disease the following probabilities are known:

1% of the population has the disease: P(S)= 0.01

95% of those who are sick, test positive for it: P(+/S)= 0.95 (sensibility of the test)

2% of those who don't have the disease, test positive for it: P(+/H)= 0.02

The probability of a person having the blood sickness given that the test was positive is:

P(S/+)= P(+ ∩ S)

P(+)

The first step you need to calculate the intersection between both events + and S, for that you will use the information about the sickness prevalence in the population and the sensibility of the test:

P(+/S) = P(+ ∩ S)

P(S)

P(+/S)* P(S) = P(+ ∩ S)

P(+ ∩ S) = 0.95*0.01= 0.0095

The second step is to calculate the probability of the test being positive:

P(+)= P(+ ∩ S) + P(+ ∩ H)

Now we know that 1% of the population has the blood sickness, wich means that 99% of the population doesn't have it, symbolically: P(H)= 0.99

Then you can clear the value of P(+ ∩ H):

P(+/H) = P(+ ∩ H)

P(H)

P(+/H)*P(H) = P(+ ∩ H)

P(+ ∩ H) = 0.02*0.99= 0.0198

Next you can calculate P(+):

P(+)= P(+ ∩ S) + P(+ ∩ H)= 0.0095 + 0.0198= 0.0293

Now you can calculate the asked probability:

P(S/+)= P(+ ∩ S) = 0.0095 = 0.32

P(+) 0.0293

I hope it helps!
