Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

E. 0.11

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

A 10% probability that a person has the flu.

A 90% probability that a person does not have the flu, just a cold.

If a person has the flu, a 99% probability of having a runny nose.

If a person just has a cold, a 90% probability of having a runny nose.

This 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 that:

What is the probability that a person has the flu, given that she has a runny nose?

P(B) is the probability that a person has the flu. So P(B) = 0.1.

P(A/B) is the probability that a person has a runny nose, given that she has the flu. So P(A/B) = 0.99.

P(A) is the probability that a person has a runny nose. It is 0.99 of 0.1 and 0.90 of 0.90. So

$P(A) = 0.99*0.1 + 0.9*0.9 = 0.909$

What is the probability that this person has the flu?

$P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.1*0.99}{0.909} = 0.1089 = 0.11$

The correct answer is:

E. 0.11

A freight train leaves a station and travels north at 60 mph. 4 hours later, a passenger train leaves on a parallel track and t

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

first do:

60mph * 4 hours= 240mi

Let D = the distance the passenger train has to

travel to catch the freight train

Start a stopwatch when the passenger train leaves

Let t = the time on the stopwatch when they meet

Equation for freight train:

d-240=60t

Equation for passenger train:

d=100t

all together:

100t-240=60t

we can do 100t-60t because they both have (t)= 40t

40t=240 *now divide 240 by 40= 6

THEN do:

D= 100mph x 6= 600mi

They will meet 600 mi from the station

to check:

d-240=60t x 6

600-240= 360

60 x 6= 360

360=360
