Home pregnancy tests, like all medical tests, are not perfectly accurate. Suppose one such test has an accuracy level such that

if a woman is pregnant there is a 12% chance that the test will fail to show it. On the other hand, if the woman is not pregnant there is still a 3% chance that the test will incorrectly say that she is. Show all the steps including identification of what formulas/properties you used. Points will be deducted from answers if only the final answer is provided.
a) If Joan is pregnant what is the chance that the test will detect it?
b) Based on other factors, Joan estimates there is an 80% chance that she is pregnant.
Therefore, Joan takes a pregnancy test. What is the probability that the test will indicate that she is pregnant?
c) Joan looks at the test result and it does indicate that she is pregnant. Given this test result, what is the probability that she is pregnant?
d) Pamela has also taken this particular home pregnancy test. Before taking the test, she estimated there was a 75% chance that she

will mark brainiest I need the answer as soon as possible can you order from least to greatest and show your work
Svetlanka [38]

You have two choices: the easiest is to turn every fraction to its numerical equivalent:

-\dfrac{9}{10}=-0.9,\ \ -\dfrac{3}{7}\approx -0.42857,\ \ -\dfrac{3}{4}=-0.75,\ \ -\dfrac{6}{5} = -1.2, -\dfrac{4}{3}\approx -1.33

Now, remember that negative numbers are ordered in the opposite way with respect to positive numbers (for example, 4 is larger than 2, but -4 is smaller than -2). So, the order is

-\dfrac{4}{3} < -\dfrac{6}{5} < -\dfrac{9}{10} < -\dfrac{3}{4} < -\dfrac{3}{7}

Alternatively, you can convert all the fractions so that they have the same denominator. In this case, you will need the least common multiple of 10, 7, 4, 5 and 3, which is 420. Once you do so, you can easily order the fractions using numerators only.

Write the point-slope form of the equation of the line through the given point with the given
Marina86 [1]

Question 3)

Given

The point (1, -5)

The slope m = -5/6

Using the point-slope form of the equation of a line

y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)

where

  • m is the slope of the line
  • (x₁, y₁) is the point

In our case:

  • m = -5/6
  • (x₁, y₁) = (1, -5)

substituting the values m = -5/6 and the point (1, -5) in the point-slope form of the equation of the line

y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)

y-\left(-5\right)=-\frac{5}{6}\left(x-1\right)

y+5=-\frac{5}{6}\left(x-1\right)

Thus, the point-slope form of the equation of the line is:

y+5=-\frac{5}{6}\left(x-1\right)

Question 4)

Given

The point (-1, 5)

The slope m = -7/2

In our case:

  • m = -7/2
  • (x₁, y₁) = (-1, 5)

substituting the values m = -7/2 and the point (-1, 5) in the point-slope form of the equation of the line

y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)

y-5=-\frac{7}{2}\left(x-\left(-1\right)\right)

y-5=-\frac{7}{2}\left(x+1\right)

Thus, the point-slope form of the equation of the line is:

y-5=-\frac{7}{2}\left(x+1\right)

b. Find a 99% confidence interval for mean age of ICU patients using the facts that, in the sample, the mean is 57.55 years and
rjkz [21]

Answer:

<em>99% of confidence intervals for mean age of ICU patients</em>

<em>(53.8920 , 61.2079)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>:-

<em>Given sample mean </em>x^{-} = 57.55<em></em>

Given standard error is determined by

                                                             S.E =\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} }

<em>Given data standard error = 1.42</em>

<em>99% of confidence intervals for mean is determined by</em>

(x^{-} - Z_{0.01} \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} + Z_{0.01} \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } )

Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = Z_{\frac{0.01}{2} } = Z_{0.05} = 2.576

(x^{-} - 2.576 S.E , x^{-} + 2.576 S.E)

(57.55 - 2.576X 1.42 , 57.55+ 2.576 X1.42)

(53.8920 , 61.2079)

<u><em>Conclusion</em></u>:-

<em>99% of confidence intervals for mean is determined by</em>

<em>(53.8920 , 61.2079)</em>
