During a flu epidemic, 35% of the school's students have the flu. Of those with the flu, 90% have high
temperatures. However, high temperatures are possible for people who do not have the flu. It is estimated that
12% of those without the flu have high temperatures.
If a student has a high temperature, what is the probability that the student has the flu?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 0.8015

Step-by-step explanation:

Let F= event that a person has flu

H= event that person has a high temperature.

As per given,

P(F) =0.35

Then P(F')= 1- 0.35= 0.65               [Total probability= 1]

P(H | F) = 0.90

P(H|F') = 0.12

By Bayes theorem, we have

[tex]P(F|H)=\dfrac{P(F)\timesP(H|F)}{P(F)\timesP(H|F)+P(F')\timesP(H|F')}\\\\=\dfrac{0.35\times0.90}{0.35\times0.90+0.65\times0.12}\\\\=\dfrac{0.315}{0.315+0.078}\approx0.8015[/tex]

Required probability = 0.8015

Find the equation of circle passing through points (5 7) and (2 -2 ) whose center lies on the 2x-y=1​

Answers

Answer:

(x-2)²+(y-3)²=5².

Step-by-step explanation:

1. the equation of line through points (5;7) and (2;-2) is:

[tex]\frac{x-5}{3} =\frac{y-7}{9}; \ => \ 3x-y-8=0.[/tex]

2. to find the equation of the line, which is perpendicular to the line 3x-y-8=0:

the vector (3;-1) is perpendicular to the line 3x-y-8=0 and it is the vector-pointer for the requred line, and if |n₁|*|n₂|=0 (where n₁ is normal vector to the line 3x-y-8=0 and n₂ is normal vector to the required line), then 3*x-1*y=0 (where 'x' and 'y' any numbers). x=1; y=3, then n₂(1;3), then the required line is x+3y+C=0, where C - is unknown number.

3. to find the equation of the line, which is perpendicular to the line 3x-y-8=0 and passes through the middle point of (5;7) and (2;-2):

middle point is (7/2;5/2), then after substitution of coordinates of the middle point into the equation x+3y+C=0 it will be 3.5+3*2.5+C=0, ⇒ C= -11.

the required equation is x+3y-11=0

4. to calculate the intersection point of x+3y-11=0 and 2x-y=1:

[tex]\left \{ {{2x-y=1} \atop {x+3y=11}} \right. \ => \ (2;3)[/tex]

the point (2;3) is the centre of the required circle.

5. to calculate the radius² of the required circle:

r²=(5-2)²+(7-3)² or r²=(2-2)²+(2+3)², then r²=5².

6. if the centre of the required circle is (2;3) and its r²=25, then it is possible to make up the equiation of the circle:

(x-2)²+(y-3)²=5².

Mr. Wilson invested money in two accounts. His total investment was $20,000. If one account pays 3% in interest and the other pays 6% in interest, how much does he have in each account if he earned a total of $960 in interest in 1 year?

He invested $__ in the 3% account and $__ in the 6% account.

Answers

Answer:

8000 and 12,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of money deposited in the 3% account be known as "x"

The amount of money deposited in the 6% account would be "20,000 - x" (aka the remaining amount of money not put into the first account)

3% Interest -> 0.03 *

6% Interest  -> 0.06 *

0.03 * x + 0.06 * (20,000 - x) = 960

0.03x + 1200 - 0.06x = 960

-0.03x = -240

x = 8000

20,000 - x

20,000 - 8000 = 12000

Jacob made a banner for a sporting event in the shape of a parallelogram. The area of the banner is 127 1/2 square centimeters. The height of the banner is 4 1/4 centimeters. What is the base of the banner?


PLS HELP PLS PLS​

Answers

Answer:

The base of the banner is 30 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = base × height

Plug in the numbers:

127 1/2 = b × 4 1/4

Convert mixed fractions into improper fractions for easier calculations.

Improper fraction formula: (denominator × mixed number + numerator)/denoninator

(2 × 127 + 1)/2 = 255/2

(4 × 4 + 1)/4 = 17/4

Rewrite equation:

255/2 = b × 17/4

Isolate variable b by multiplying the reciprocal of 17/4 (which is 4/17).

1020/34 = b

Simplify.

30 = b

Mrs. Lopez need to sew a piece of cloth whose length be 150.72 inches.

What is circumference?

A circumference gives the length around a circular object, it is the perimeter used for the circular objects.

Given that a circular tablecloth has a radius of 24 inches, we need to find the length around it,

So, the length around a circular object is its circumference,

We know that circumference of the circular object = π × diameter,

Diameter = 2 × radius = 48 inches.

So, the length around the circular cloth = π × 48

= 3.14 × 48
= 150.72

Hence Mrs. Lopez need to sew a piece of cloth whose length be 150.72 inches.

Naomi's fish is 40 millimeters long. Her guinea pig is 25 centimeters long.
How much longer is her guinea pig than her fish?

Answers

Explanation 1:

Her guinea pig is

25 cm  long.

25 cm = 250 mm

Her fish is  40 mm long, so her guinea pig is longer than her fish by

25 cm − 40 mm = 250 mm − 40 mm = 210 mm= 21 cm

Explanation 2:

First, lets convert the length of Naomi's guinea pig from cm to mm.

1 cm=10 mm

We can multiply each side of the equation by 25 to obtain the length of the guinea pig in mm.

25 × 1 cm = 25 ×  10 mm

25 cm = 250 mm

Because we have a length of the guinea pig and the fish in a common metric we can subtract the two values: 250 mm − 40 mm = 210 mm The guinea pig is 210 millimeters longer than the fish. Or, if we want to convert this to centimeters we can divide by 10: 210 millimeters 10 = 21 centimeters

The ratio of the number of Malay students to the number of Indian students to the

Answer:

663

Step-by-step explanation:

the total number of students can be determined using this equation :

(total ratio of Chinese and Indian students / total ratio of students) x n = 468

total ratio of Chinese and Indian students = 4 + 8 = 12

total ratio of students 4 + 8 + 5 = 17

N = TOTAL NUMBER OF STUDENTS
