Step-by-step explanation:

Expenses for the shirt

= 10(24)+100

= $340

no. of tshirts needed to be sold to make a profit

= $340 ÷ $24

= 15 (rounded up)

Answer:

The least amount of T-shirts you would need to sell would be 8 T-shirts.

Step-by-step explanation:

24x > 10x + 100

14x > 100

x > 7.142857... (rounded to 8)

Write the equation of the line that is the perpendicular bisector of the segment with endpoints (4, 1) and (2, -5)

Sedbober [7]

Answer: $\bold{y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

(4, 1) & (2, -5)

First, find the slope (m) and then the perpendicular (opposite reciprocal) slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\\m=\dfrac{-5-1}{2-4} = \dfrac{-6}{-2}=3\quad \rightarrow \quad m_{\perp}=-\dfrac{1}{3}\\$

Next, find the midpoint of (4, 1) and (2, -5):

$Midpoint=\bigg(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\bigg)\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad=\bigg(\dfrac{4+2}{2},\dfrac{1-5}{2}\bigg)\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad=\bigg(\dfrac{6}{2},\dfrac{-4}{2}\bigg)\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad=(3, -2)$

Lastly, input the perpendicular slope and the midpoint into the Point-Slope formula to find the equation of the line:

$y - y_1 = m_{\perp}(x - x_1)\\\\y - (-2) = -\dfrac{1}{3}(x - 3)\\\\y + 2=-\dfrac{1}{3}x +1\\\\y =-\dfrac{1}{3}x - 1\\$

A new medical test provides a false positive result for hepatitis 2% of the time that is a perfectly healthy subject being teste

Oxana [17]

Given that X be the number of subjects who test positive for the disease out of the 30 healthy subjects used for the test.

The probability of success, i.e. the probability that a healthy subject tests positive is given as 2% = 0.02

Part A:

The probability that all 30 subjects will appropriately test as not being infected, that is the probability that none of the healthy subjects will test positive is given by:

 $P(X)={ ^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}} \\ \\ P(0)={ ^{30}C_0(0.02)^0(1-0.02)^{30-0}} \\ \\ =1(1)(0.98)^{30}=0.5455$


Part B:

The mean of a binomial distribution is given by

 $\mu=np \\ \\ =30(0.02) \\ \\ =0.6$

The standard deviation is given by:

 $\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)} \\ \\ =\sqrt{30(0.02)(1-0.02)} \\ \\ =\sqrt{30(0.02)(0.98)}=\sqrt{0.588} \\ \\ =0.7668$


Part C:

This test will not be a trusted test in the field of medicine as it has a standard deviation higher than the mean. The testing method will not be consistent in determining the infection of hepatitis.
