A new process of more accurately detecting anaerobic respiration in cells is being tested. The new process is important due to its high accuracy, its lack of extensive experimentation, and the fact that it could be used to identify five different categories of organisms: obligate anaerobes, facultative anaerobes, aerotolerant, microaerophilic, and n anaerobes instead of using a single test for each category. The process claims that it can identify obligate anaerobes with 97.8% accuracy, facultative anaerobes with 98.1% accuracy, aerotolerant with 95.9% accuracy, microaerophiles with 96.5% accuracy, and n anaerobes with 99.2% accuracy. If any category is not present, the process does not signal. Samples are prepared for the calibration of the process and 31% of them contain obligate anaerobes, 27% contain facultative anaerobes, 21% contain microaerophiles, 12% contain nanaerobes, and 9% contain aerotolerant. A test sample is selected randomly.

Required:
a. What is the probability that the process will signal?
b. If the test signals, what is the probability thatmicroaerophiles are present?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0.97605 = 97.605% probability that the process will signal.

b) 0.2076 = 20.76% probability that microaerophiles are present.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

a. What is the probability that the process will signal?

It signals in these following moments:

97.8% of 31%(contains obligate anaerobes).

98.1% of 27%(contains facultative anaerobes).

96.5% of 21%(contains microaerophiles).

99.2% of 12%(contains nanaerobes).

95.9% of 9%(contains aerotolerant). So

[tex]p = 0.978*0.31 + 0.981*0.27 + 0.965*0.21 + 0.992*0.12 + 0.959*0.09 = 0.97605[/tex]

0.97605 = 97.605% probability that the process will signal.

b. If the test signals, what is the probability thatmicroaerophiles are present?

Event A: Test signals

Event B: Contains microaerophiles

0.97605 = 97.605% probability that the process will signal.

This means that [tex]P(A) = 0.97605[/tex]

Intersection of events A and B:

Signals containing microaerophiles, which is 96.5% of 21%. So

[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.965*0.21 = 0.20265[/tex]

The probability that microaerophiles are present is:

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.20265}{0.97605} = 0.2076[/tex]

0.2076 = 20.76% probability that microaerophiles are present.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of tower - 80m

Distance between foot of tower and boat 1 = x

Distance between boat 1 and boat 2 =y

Tan 45 = 1 = 80/x

x = 80

There are 36 inches in a yard, so you divide 50 by 36.

You get a variety of answers depending on what form you want it in:

1 yard 1 foot and 2 inches.

1 yard and 14 inches.

These two answers take two forms as fractions of 36:

8 is not in the solution set

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, -y + 7 < -4

To find out if 8 is in the solution set, substitute y = 8 in the inequality and solve to see if the statement would be true.

Thus:

-8 + 7 < -4

-1 < -4

This -1 is less than -4. This is actually not TRUE. -1 is rather greater than -4.

Therefore, 8 is not in the solution set.

Gwen takes out a loan of $400 to pay for an online course. Flat rate interest is charged at 8% p.a

If she repays the loan in 3
months, how much interest does she pay in total?

Answers

We know, 1 year = 12 month.

So, 3 month = 3/12 = 0.25 year.

Now, principle amount, P = $400 .

Rate is, r = 8% = 0.08

Time period, t = 0.25 year.

Now, Interest is given by :

I = P × r × t

I = $( 400 × 0.08 × 0.25 )

I = $8

Therefore, she will pay $8 interest in total.

How much net work is required to accelerate a 1000 kg from 20 m/s to 30
m/s?

Answers

Answer:

Work= force(F) * distance (s)

weight is a force and so

F=weight=mass *acceleration due to gravity

=1000*10=10000N

S=?

To find s,

F= ma

a=F/m=10000/10

a=10m/s²

Using Newton's third equation of motion

v²= u²+2as

30²= 20²+2*10*s

900–400=20s

500=20s

s=500/20= 25m

Work =F*s

Work=10000*25

Work= 250000J or 250KJ

Is x = -4 a solution to these equations? Show your work and write YES or NO.

1. 3(2x-4) = -36
2. 5x - 6x - x = 18
3. 5 - 2(3x - 1) = 31

Answers

Answer:

1. Yes

2. No

3. Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

We have three equations where x is equal to -4. We are then asked if -4 are a solution to these equations.

To solve we need to substitute the x in every equation for -4. Start :

1.

3(2(-4) - 4) = -36

3(-8 - 4) = -36

-24 - 12 = -36

Therefore -4 is a solution.

2.

5(-4) - 6(-4) - (-4) = 18

-20 + 24 + 4 = 18

4 + 4 = 18

8 ≠ 18

Therefore -4 is not a solution.

3.

5 - 2(3(-4) - 1) = 31

5 - 2(-12 - 1) = 31

5 - 2(-13) = 31

5 + 26 = 31

Therefore -4 is a solution.

Help please! Could you explain it too?

Answers

Answer:

a) not proportional

b) proportional; k = [tex]-\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

a) for any proportional equation, the line must pass through the origin. The equation in a) is y = 4x + 1, and the '+1' is the y-intercept. This means that the line does not pass through the origin, so x and y cannot increase by the same amount (i.e. they are not proportional).

Another way to determine this is is to use the y = kx base. If you have an equation that fits that it's likely proportional.

Here, if the equation was only y = 4x then it'd be proportional because u can see that k = 4. This is not the equation though, and the 4x + 1 doesn't fit to the y = kx formula so it can't be proportional.

b) straight away you can see that there's no 'c' term (y = mx + c) which means the y-intercept is 0, so the line passes through the origin. While this does not immediately mean the line is proportional, you can make sure that it is by checking it fits with the y = kx equation.

y = -(3/5)x fits with y = kx, with k being -3/5

How much total money would Easton have to pay for parking if he left his car
in the lot for 2 hours? How much would Easton have to pay if he left his car in
the lot for t hours?

Answers

Answer:

If he left the car in the lot for 2 hours, he would have to pay 14 dollars. if he left it for "t" hours, he would have to pay 11 + 3t dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of it like this: "a" represents the total amount of money Easton will spend, t represents time in hours. $11 + $3*t = a
