A diagnostic test has a 95% probability of giving a positive result when given to a person who has a certain disease. It has a 10% probability of giving a (false) positive result when given to a person who doesn’t have the disease. It is estimated that 15% of the population suffers from this disease.
(a) What is the probability that a test result is positive?
(b) A person recieves a positive test result. What is the probability that this person actually has the disease? (probability of a true positive)
(c) A person recieves a positive test result. What is the probability that this person doesn’t actually have the disease? (probability of a false negative)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a)0.2275   b)95/105=19/21    c)10/105= 2/21

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The case "The test result is positive" consists in 2 parts.

The 1st one is "The person has the desease (15%=0.15)  and the test's  result is positive (95%=0.95)

The probability of that is P(desease, positive) = 0.15*0.95=0.1425

The 2nd one is "The person has no the desease (100%-15%=85%=0.85). However the test result is positive (10%=0.1)

The probability of that is P(not desease, positive)=0.85*0.1=0.085

The total probability that test is positive is the sum of 1st and 2-nd parts of the case: P(pos) = 0.1425+0.085=0.2275

b) As it has been shown in a) The test result can be positive in case that the person is really has the desease (95%) and in case the person has no the desease (10%).  This actually means that 95 persons from 105  having positive test result are really has the desease.

So the probability that the test result is positive and person has the desease is P (desease/positive)= 95/105

c) It's clearly seen that the sum of  probabilities of b) and c)  equal 1.

Both events make full group of events.

If the test result is positive the person can have the desease or can have not the desease. So ( no desease/positive)= 1-95/105=10/105

A baseball player swings and hits a pop fly straight up in the air to the catcher. The height of the baseball in meters t seconds after it is hit is given by the quadratic function h(t)= -4.9t^2 + 9.8t + 1. How long does it take for the baseball to reach its maximum​ height? What is the maximum height obtained by the​ baseball?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

max can be found by the formula:

t=-b/2a

t=-9.8/2*(-4.9)

t=-9.8/-9.8

t=1

1 sec

to find maximum height obtained we find the vertex:

plug in 1 for t and simply solve:

h(t)= -4.9t^2 + 9.8t + 1

h(t)= -4.9*1^2 + 9.8*1 + 1

h(t)= -4.9*1 + 9.8 + 1

h(t)= -4.9 + 10.8

h(t)= 5.9

height is 5.9

Does this sample have a bias

A concerned citizen

stands outside of the

courthouse with a petition to

outlaw tickets being given for

parking meters to be

removed.

Answers

Answer:

Yes, the sample has a bias

Step-by-step explanation:

Bias is the term used in statistics to describe a systematic distortion in the samples obtained for the parameter being estimated. It is evident by obtaining values higher or lower than that of the average population for the parameter being measured. As such the data is a misrepresentation of the population and cannot be trusted to give a good indices of things.

This sample has a bias because the concerned citizen opted to use a convenience sampling instead of using random sampling. In random sampling, every individual has an equal chance of being chosen which is unlike the convenience sampling when only a specific group of individuals can be chosen. In this case, the bias was introduced when the citizen went to stand outside the courthouse with his petition, the citizen should have taken samples across diverse geographical locations and professional institutions. The implication of this sampling is that a significant percentage of the population has been sidelined (considering they would not be in or around the courthouse) from the sampling and the sampling has been restricted to only those who have business around the courthouse. The result is that whatever samples he/she obtains will not be an accurate representation of the parameter being measure from the population.

As such, the sampling technique is biased

How many parallel and perpendicular lines, are there in a trapezium?

Answers

Answer:

US

0 parallel linesoptionally, one or two (opposite) angles may be 90°

World

2 parallel linesoptionally, one line perpendicular to the two parallel lines

Step-by-step explanation:

It depends on where you are. A "trapezium" outside the US is the same as a "trapezoid" in the US, and vice versa.

A trapezium (World; trapezoid in the US) is characterized by exactly one pair of parallel lines. One of the lines that are not parallel may be perpendicular to the parallel lines, but that will only be true for the specific case of a "right" trapezium.

__

A trapezium (US; trapezoid in the World) is characterized by no parallel lines. It may have one angle or opposite angles that are right angles (one or two sets of perpendicular lines), but neither diagonal may bisect the other.

In the US, "trapezium" is rarely used. The term "quadrilateral" is generally applied to a 4-sided figure with no sides parallel.

A plane flies 240 miles due north, then 320 miles due west. How
many miles must it fly to return to its starting point by the shortest
route? (Enter your answer without units.)

Answers

Answer: The distance of the shortest route of return is 400

Step-by-step explanation:

The direction of travel of the plane forms a right angle triangle ABC as shown in the attached photo. C represents the starting point of the plane. To determine the distance of the shortest by which the plane can return to its starting point, BC, we would apply the Pythagorean theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

BC² = 320² + 240²

BC² = 160000

BC = √160000

BC = 400

A random sample of 110 lightning flashes in a certain region resulted in a sample average radar echo duration of 0.81 second and a sample standard deviation of 0.34 second. This sample data is used as a pilot study, and now the investigator would like to design a new study to construct a 99% confidence interval with width 0.1. What is the necessary sample size

Answers

Answer:

[tex]n=(\frac{2.58(0.34)}{0.05})^2 =307.79 \approx 308[/tex]

So the answer for this case would be n=308 rounded up to the nearest integer

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error is given by this formula:

[tex] ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]    (a)

And on this case we have that ME =0.1/2 =0.05 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

[tex]n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} s}{ME})^2[/tex]   (b)

The critical value for 99% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution since the sample size is large enough to assume the estimation of the standard deviation as the population deviation. The critical value for this case is [tex]z_{\alpha/2}=2.58[/tex], replacing into formula (b) we got:

[tex]n=(\frac{2.58(0.34)}{0.05})^2 =307.79 \approx 308[/tex]

So the answer for this case would be n=308 rounded up to the nearest integer

A residential complex has left for the recreation area a circular-shaped extension of 40 m radius. In this space, a basketball court 30 m long by 15 m wide will be built. Also, a trapezoid-shaped park will be left in the sand, 6 m with a larger base, 4 m with a lower base and 3.5 m in height. What is the area left in the circular zone, after building the basketball court and the sand park? NOTE: remember the value of π = 3.14

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the circular zone = [tex]\pi[/tex]r^2

= 3.14 × 40^2 = 3.14 × 1600 = 5024 m^2

Area of the basketball court = l × b

= 30 × 15 = 450 m^2

Area of the trapezium shaped park =  ( 6 + 4 ) 3.5 / 2

= 35/2 = 17.5 m^2

∴ Area left in the circular zone = Area of the circular zone - ( Area of the basketball court + Area of the trapezium shaped park )

= 5024 - ( 450 + 17.5 )

= 5024 - 467.5

= 4556.5 m^2

Scores on a recent national statistics exam were normally distributed with a mean of 82.2 and a standard deviation of 5.If the top 2.5% of test scores receive merit awards, what is the lowest score eligible for an award

Answers

Answer:

The lowest score eligible for an award is 92.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question:

[tex]\mu = 82.2, \sigma = 5[/tex]

If the top 2.5% of test scores receive merit awards, what is the lowest score eligible for an award

The lowest score is the 100 - 2.5 = 97.5th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.975. So X when Z = 1.96. Then

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]1.96 = \frac{X - 82.2}{5}[/tex]

[tex]X - 82.2 = 5*1.96[/tex]

[tex]X = 92[/tex]

The lowest score eligible for an award is 92.

An airport limousine can accommodate up to four passengers on any one trip. The company will accept a maximum of six reservations for a trip, and a passenger must have a reservation. From previous records, 30% of all those making reservations do not appear for the trip. Answer the following questions, assuming independence wherever appropriate. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)
(a) If six reservations are made, what is the probability that at least one individual with a reservation cannot be accommodated on the trip?
(b) If six reservations are made, what is the expected number of available places when the limousine departs?

Answers

Answer:

(a) The probability that at least one individual with a reservation cannot be accommodated on the trip is 0.4202.

(b) The expected number of available places when the limousine departs is 0.338.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable Y represent the number of passenger reserving the trip shows up.

The probability of the random variable Y is, p = 0.70.

The success in this case an be defined as the number of passengers who show up for the trip.

The random variable Y follows a Binomial distribution with probability of success as 0.70.

(a)

It is provided that n = 6 reservations are made.

Compute the probability that at least one individual with a reservation cannot be accommodated on the trip as follows:

P (At least one individual cannot be accommodated) = P (X = 5) + P (X = 6)

[tex]={6 \choose 5}\ (0.70)^{5}\ (1-0.70)^{6-5}+{6 \choose 6}\ (0.70)^{6}\ (1-0.70)^{6-6}\\\\=0.302526+0.117649\\\\=0.420175\\\\\approx 0.4202[/tex]

Thus, the probability that at least one individual with a reservation cannot be accommodated on the trip is 0.4202.

(b)

The formula to compute the expected value is:

[tex]E(Y) = \sum X\cdot P(X)[/tex]

[tex]P (X=0)={6 \choose 0}\ (0.70)^{0}\ (1-0.70)^{6-0}=0.000729\\\\P (X=1)={6 \choose 1}\ (0.70)^{1}\ (1-0.70)^{6-1}=0.010206\\\\P (X=2)={6 \choose 2}\ (0.70)^{2}\ (1-0.70)^{6-2}=0.059535\\\\P (X=3)={6 \choose 3}\ (0.70)^{3}\ (1-0.70)^{6-3}=0.18522\\\\P (X=4)={6 \choose 4}\ (0.70)^{4}\ (1-0.70)^{6-4}=0.324135[/tex]

Compute the expected number of available places when the limousine departs as follows:

[tex]E(Y) = \sum X\cdot P(X)[/tex]

         [tex]=(4\cdot 0.000729)+(3\cdot 0.010206)+(2\cdot 0.059535)+(1\cdot 0.18522)\\+(0\cdot 0.324135)\\\\=0.002916+0.030618+0.11907+0.18522+0\\\\=0.337824\\\\\approx 0.338[/tex]

Thus, the expected number of available places when the limousine departs is 0.338.

Answer:

P(33) = 0.0826

Step-by-step explanation:

The binomial distribution in this case has parameters n=55 and p=0.55.

The probability that k successes happen with these parameters can be calculated as:

[tex]P(x=k) = \dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}(1-p)^{n-k}\\\\\\P(x=k) = \dbinom{55}{k} 0.55^{k} 0.45^{55-k}\\\\\\[/tex]

A direct variation function contains the points (-9, -3) and (-12,4). Which equation represents the function?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = -\frac{7x}{3} - 24[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can model this function using the equation of a line:

[tex]y = ax + b[/tex]

Where a is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

To find the values of a and b, we can use the two points given:

(-9, -3):

[tex]-3 = a * (-9) + b[/tex]

[tex]-9a + b = -3[/tex]

(-12, 4):

[tex]4 = a * (-12) + b[/tex]

[tex]-12a + b = 4[/tex]

If we subtract the second equation from the first one, we have:

[tex]-12a + b - (-9a + b) = 4 - (-3)[/tex]

[tex]-12a + 9a = 4 + 3[/tex]

[tex]-3a = 7[/tex]

[tex]a = -7/3[/tex]

Then, finding the value of b, we have:

[tex]-12a + b = 4[/tex]

[tex]28 + b = 4[/tex]

[tex]b = -24[/tex]

So the equation is:

[tex]y = -\frac{7x}{3} - 24[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We shall find the solution of this problem with the help of vector notation of i , j , which show east and  north direction .

The first displacement can be represented by the following

D₁ = - 3 cos 45 i + 3 sin45 j = - 3 / √2 i + 3 / √2 j

The second  displacement can be represented by the following

D₂ = - 5 cos 45 i - 5 sin45 j = - 5 /√2 i - 5 /√2 j

The third  displacement can be represented by the following

D₃ =  4 cos 45 i + 4 sin45 j =  4 /√2 i + 4 /√2 j

Total displacement D =

D₁ +D₂ + D₃

= i ( -3 -5 + 4 ) / √2 + j ( 3 - 5 + 4 ) / √2 j

= - 4  / √2 i + 2 / √2 j

D = - 2.8288 i + 1.414 j

Magnitude of D

= √ ( 2.8288² + 1.414² )

= 3.16 miles

For direction we calculate angle with X axis

Tanθ = 1.414 / 2.8288

θ = 26 °

As x is negative and Y is positive ,

the direction will be north of west .
