Answer:
7/40 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve using proportions:
Find the scale factor by dividing the numerators 25 by 1/8.
25 ÷ 1/8 = 200 This is the common ratio
To get from the top left number to the top right number, you divide 25 by 200.
To get from the bottom left number to the bottom right number, you divide 35 by 200.
35 ÷ 200 = 0.175
1/8 of an inch represents 0.175 feet.
To find 0.175 in fraction form, reduce 35/200 to its lowest terms.
35/200 = 7/40
1/8 of an inch represents 7/40 feet.
Solution:
Population in the city= 10,000
As genetic condition affects 8% of the population.
8 % of 10,000
As, it is also given that, there is an error rate of 1% for condition (i.e., 1% false negatives and 1% false positives).
So, 1% false negatives means out of 800 tested who are found affected , means there are chances that 1% who was found affected are not affected at all.
So, 1% of 800
Also, 1% false positives means out of 10,000 tested,[10,000-800= 9200] who are found not affected , means there are chances that 1% who was found not affected can be affected also.
So, 1% of 9200
1. Has condition Does not have condition totals = 800
2. Test positive =92
3. Test negative =8
4. Total =800 +92 +8=900
5. Probability (as a percentage) that a person has the condition if he or she tests positive= As 8% are found positive among 10,000 means 9200 are not found affected.But there are chances that out of 9200 , 1% may be affected
that is Probability equal to 0.01 or 1%.
