The odds a person has the disease they were tested for is 98% or 98:2.

<h3>What is the difference between probability and odds?</h3>

Probability describes how likely is an event to happen by using a percentage from 0 to 100%. On the other hand, the odds focus on the rate between the specific outcome: other outcomes.

<h3>What are the odds in this situation:</h3>

In this case, the specific outcome is to have the disease after being tested, which occurs 98% of the time. This implies only the 2% tested do not have the disease. Now, this relationship can be expressed as:

98: 2

What is 3/4 of 4/5. Plz help
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find 3/4 of 4/5.

The keyword <em>of</em> tells us that we need to multiply. Therefore:

\frac{3}{4}\times\frac{4}{5}

Multiply:

=12/20=3/5

So, 3/4 of 4/5 is 3/5.

We can confirm this by converting them to decimals.

4/5 is 0.8.

3/4 is 0.75.

0.75 or 75% of 0.8 is indeed 3/5 or 0.6.

Answer:

x^3+9x^2-3x^2-3

You can use a various of methods but when you use the box method you multiply each separately.

Like you would multiply x² by x, 8x by x, -3 by x (thats the first row)

x² by 1, 8x by 1, -3 by 1 ( for the second row)

Then you get those final variables and combine like terms getting the answer above

Use the graph to answer the question. About how many more website hits were there on Tuesday than on Monday? A. 700 B. 400 C. 60
nadezda [96]
In this graph, each day has its own graph, starting at the bottom with Monday, to the top at Sunday. To know how many hits each day had, go to the end of the graph, and the closest number at the bottom is how many hits there were. This graph states that there were around 1900 hits on Tuesday, and 1300 on Monday. To get the answer we then take the difference, getting 600.
