Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

2a+3b=5

2a+3(a-5)=5

2a+3a-15=5

5a=5+15

5a=20

a=4

b = a - 5

_________________________

2a + 3b = 5

2a + 3( a - 5 ) = 5

2a + 3a - 15 = 5

5a - 15 = 5

5a - 15 + 15 = 5 + 15

5a = 20

5a ÷ 5 = 20 ÷ 5

a = 4

_________________________

b = a - 5 ===》 b = 4 - 5 ===》 b = - 1

Bad gums may mean a bad heart. Researchers discovered that 82% of people who have suffered a heart attack had periodontal diseas
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

37.27% probability that he or she will have a heart attack.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bayes Theorem:

Two events, A and B.

P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)}

In which P(B|A) is the probability of B happening when A has happened and P(A|B) is the probability of A happening when B has happened.

In this question:

Event A: Periodontal disease

Event B: Heart attack

Researchers discovered that 82% of people who have suffered a heart attack had periodontal disease, an inflammation of the gums.

This means that P(A|B) = 0.82

Only 33% of healthy people have this disease.

This means that P(A) = 0.33

Suppose that in a certain community heart attacks are quite rare, occurring with only 15% probability.

This means that P(B) = 0.15

If someone has periodontal disease, what is the probability that he or she will have a heart attack

P(B|A) = \frac{0.15*0.82}{0.33} = 0.3727

37.27% probability that he or she will have a heart attack.

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

y=-3/2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the equation of a line in slope intercept form is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. The first step is to find the slope of a line. Since it goes down 3 units for every 2 it moves to the right, it has a slope of -3/2. The y intercept is also obviously at (0,3). Therefore, the equation of this line is y=-3/2x+3.

Hope this helps!
