Using conditional probability, it is found that there is a 0.1165 = 11.65% probability that a person with the flu is a person who received a flu shot.

Conditional Probability

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

In which

  • P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
  • P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.
  • P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this problem:

  • Event A: Person has the flu.
  • Event B: Person got the flu shot.

The percentages associated with getting the flu are:

  • 20% of 30%(got the shot).
  • 65% of 70%(did not get the shot).

Hence:

P(A) = 0.2(0.3) + 0.65(0.7) = 0.515

The probability of both having the flu and getting the shot is:

P(A \cap B) = 0.2(0.3) = 0.06

Hence, the conditional probability is:

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.06}{0.515} = 0.1165

0.1165 = 11.65% probability that a person with the flu is a person who received a flu shot.

is the standard form for a linear equation. The slope-intercept form is

y

=

Carly placed 50 marbles in a bag. Fifteen of the marbles are pink, 8 marbles are black,
yuradex [85]

When you go into this problem, you want to figure out your marble ammount to 50 so in this case we will say C for color and 50 for the total ammount of marbles.

We know 15 are pink, 8 are black, 2 are green, 18 are clear, and 7 are striped

15P/50

8B/50

2G/50

18C/50

7S/50 for a total of 50 marbles

Now we use the chart to decide our awnsers  

A. We know our propability of drawing a green and clear is 20/50 which if we simplify is a 2/5 ratio. If We put this in perspective 2/5 is rare and is unlikley to even.

B. We know a striped marble is 18/50 or 1.8/5 ratio which is mainly unlikely

C. We have 23/50 marbles that are black and pink, our propability is about 2.3/5 and gives us an even chance to get one of these

D. We know we have 33/50 marbles that are pink and clear and gives us a 3.3/5 chance of getting one of  these and gives us an even to likely chance of getting one of these.

E. If we have a total of 17 marbles in these 3 colors, we have a 1.7/5 chance of getting one of these and is probably impossible to unlikey.

Please help me <br>find f(x+h)​
Kay [80]

Answer:

f(x) = -2x+5

f(x+h) = -2x -2h +5

g(x) = -4x-2

g(x+h) = -4x -4h -2

h(x) = 4x^2+1

h(x+h) = 4(x+h)^2 +1 = 4x^2 +8xh + 4h^2 +1

Q(x) = -3x^2 +4

Q(x+h) = -3(x+h)^2 +4 = -3x^2 -3h^2 -6xh + 4
