Answer:
a) Pr(drug user| positive test) = 0.3333
b) The probability that he will failed his first test = 0.9703
c) the probability that he is a drug user since failed his second drug test
= 0.961165
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given information:
Suppose that 1% of the employees of a certain company use illegal drugs.
Probability of illegal drug user = 0.01
Probability of user that do not use drug = 1 - 0.01 = 0.99
From the person that is a illegal drug user, the company performs random drug tests that return positive results = 0.99
Therefore, the negative result for illegal drug user = 1 - 0.99 = 0.01
However, it also has a 2% false positive rate.
i.e the probability of the user that do not use drug has a positive result of 2% = 0.02
Thus, the probability of the user that do not use drug has a negative result of = 1 - 0.02
= 0.98
We are tasked to answer the following questions.
a) Steve, an employee at the company, has a positive test. What is the probability that he is a drug user?
i.e This employee we are taking about is a drug user and he has a positive test.
Thus;
Pr(drug user| positive test) = [tex]\dfrac{0.99 \times 0.01}{0.99 \times 0.01+ 0.02 \times 0.99}[/tex]
Pr(drug user| positive test) = [tex]\dfrac{0.0099}{0.0099+0.0198}[/tex]
Pr(drug user| positive test) = [tex]\dfrac{0.0099}{0.0297}[/tex]
Pr(drug user| positive test) = 0.3333
b) Knowing he failed his first test, what is the probability that Steve will fail his next drug test?
The probability that he will failed his first test = ((0.01 × 0.01) + (0.99×0.98))
The probability that he will failed his first test = ( 1 × 10⁻⁴ + 0.9702)
The probability that he will failed his first test = 0.9703
c) Steve just failed his second drug test. Now, what is the probability that he is a drug user?
the probability that he is a drug user since he failed his second drug test using Bayes theorem can be expressed as:
= [tex]\dfrac{0.01 \times(0.99\times 0.99)}{0.01 \times (0.99 \times0.99)+ 0.99(0.02 \times0.02)}[/tex]
the probability that he is a drug user since failed his second drug test
= [tex]\dfrac{0.01 \times(0.9801)}{0.01 \times (0.9801)+ 0.99(4 \times 10^{-4})}[/tex]
the probability that he is a drug user since failed his second drug test
= [tex]\dfrac{0.009801}{0.009801+ 3.96 \times 10^{-4}}[/tex]
the probability that he is a drug user since failed his second drug test
= 0.961165
Rectangle $ABCD$ is the base of pyramid $PABCD$. If $AB = 8$, $BC = 4$, $\overline{PA}\perp \overline{AD}$, $\overline{PA}\perp \overline{AB}$, and $PB = 17$, then what is the volume of $PABCD$?
Answer:
181.33Step-by-step explanation:
Since the base of the pyramid PABCD is a rectangle, the shape in question is a rectangular based pyramid. Volume of a rectangular based pyramid is expressed as V = 1/3 * Base Area * Height of the pyramid.
Given a rectangle ABCD with AB = 8 and BC = 4, the area of the rectangle will be equivalent to the base area of the pyramid.
Base Area = Length * Breadth
Base Area = AB * BC
Base Area = 8*4 = 32
If [tex]\overline{PA}\perp \overline{AD}\ and \ \overline{PA}\perp \overline{AB}[/tex], and PB = 17, then the height of the pyramid is PB = 17.
Volume of the pyramid = 1/3 * 32 * 17
Volume of the pyramid = 1/3 * 544
Volume of the rectangular based pyramid = 181.33
4. Identify the means and the extremes in each of the following proportions.
a. 4 : 24 = 2 : 12
b. 24/6 = 164
c. 4:8 = 8:16
d. 650 = 3/25
Answer:
a) Means: 24 and 2; Extremes: 4 and 12
b) Means: 6 and 16; Extremes: 24 and 4
c) Means: 8 and 8; Extremes: 4 and 16
d) Means: 50 and 3; Extremes: 6 and 25
Step-by-step explanation:
The Means and Extremes in a proportion are defined based on the writing the proportion in one lie using colons the indicate the fraction, like in:
a : b = c : d The extremes values here are those that you see at the extreme left and extreme right of that expression. That is: a, and d.
The Means are the values that appear in the middle of the one line expression, that is: b and c.
Recall as well that the proportion can also be written with fractions:
a : b = c : d is the same as: a / b = c / d
so convert the expression to a one line with colons when the question comes in fraction form, and that way you can answer.
The length of a rectangle is 2 inches more than its width. The area of the rectangle is equal to 1 inches less than 3 times the perimeter. Find the length and width of the rectangle.
Answer:
The length is 13, when the width is 11
Step-by-step explanation:
The width is x, when the length is x+2. The area is x(x+2)= x^2+2x.
The perimeter is (x+x+2)*2= (2x+2)*2=4x+4
THe thrre times perimeter is 3(4x+4)= 12x+12
x^2+2x= 12x+12-1
x^2+2x-12x-11=0
x^2-10x-11=0
x=-1 (not suitable); x=11 - the width
The length is 11+2=13
Determine if the triangles below are similar. If they are, give the rule that you used to determine similarity.
The triangles are similar due to SAS congruence postulate rule.
What are Similar Triangles?Similar Triangles are defined as two triangles with the same shape, equal pair of corresponding angles, and the same ratio of the corresponding sides. The triangles that like one another but may not be exactly the same size are said to be similar triangles. When two objects have the same shape but different sizes, they can be said to be similar. This indicates that identical shapes superimpose one another when enlarged. The term "Similarity" refers to this characteristic of like shapes.
Given triangles are similar due to SAS congruence postulate rule.
SAS or Side-Angle-Side Similarity Criterion,
According to the SAS similarity theorem, If any two of the first triangle's sides are exactly proportional to those of the second triangle, and if the angle created by these two sides of each individual triangle is equal, then the two triangles must be similar triangles.

On edge
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean and median of the data is
Mean ≈ 4.1 pounds
Median = 4.44
How to find mean and median of a data?The ratio of the total number of observations to the sum of the observations is known as the mean.
The median is a value for an ordered data collection that has the same amount of observations on its left and right (in either ascending or descending order).
We have the following data:
3.25, 3.25, 3.66, 3.83, 4.57, 4.52, 4.74, 4.69, 4.44
So, Mean of the data is
= sum/number of observations
= (3.25 + 3.25 + 3.66 + 3.83 + 4.57 + 4.52 + 4.74 + 4.69 + 4.44) / 9
= 36.95 / 9
= 4.10555
Now, Arranging the data in ascending order gives
3.25, 3.25, 3.66, 3.83, 4.44, 4.52, 4.57, 4.69, 4.74
Here mid value is the 5th value from both end.
Thus, median of the data set = 4.44

Find the missing coordinate
Answer:
(0, -10a)
Step-by-step explanation:
From the picture attached,
Coordinates of a point have been given as (-10a, 0)
x-coordinate → distance of the point from the origin on x-axis
y-coordinate → distance of the point from the origin on y-axis
Therefore, distance of the given point on x-axis = -10a [(-) sign denotes the negative side of the x-axis]
Distance of the other point with unknown coordinates (x, y) (on y-axis) from the origin = y
And y = 10a
Therefore, coordinates of the unknown point will be (0, -10a).
[Here (-) sign denotes the negative side of the y-axis]

Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
the bigger triangle (∆GFH), <HGF = 90° and <GFH = 60° and GF = 4
In the 30-60-90 triangle, FH = 4×2 = 8
or you can find it like this,
cos60 = 4/FH
FH = 4/cos60 = 8
Now, I is the midpoint of FH, so, FI = 8/2 = 4
now for ∆FGI,
<GFI = 60°, GF = 4, FI = 4, it's a equilateral triangle, so we can say GI = 4
Now we need to find the height of ∆FGI, for that,
area of ∆FGI = (√3/4)×4² = 4√3 = 6.92820323..
So height (GJ) = 2×area/side = 2×4√3/4 = 2√3 = 3.46410162.. [height of ∆GFI (Because altitude is perpendicular distance from a point) = GJ, given]
now, in ∆GJI, GJ = 2√3, GI = 4 and <GJI = 90° (since itsy altitude, the angle will be a right angle, i.e. 90°)
So, JI = √{4²-(2√3)²} = 2
Area = 2×2√3/2 = 2√3 = 3.46410162.. = 3.46 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)

You need a shelf for a small space in your house, so you make a measurement with your meter stick and head to the store. Once there, you find that the dimension of the shelves you want is given in cm. If your space measured 0.8 m, and the shelves at the store measure 30 cm, answer the following questions: 1) How many meters wide is the shelf you want to buy? 2) Will it fit in your house? yes no
Answer:
1. 0.3 m
2. yes
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Given that
Measurement of space = 0.8m
measurement of the shelves = 30 cm = 0.3 m as 1 m = 100 cm
So for 30 cm it would be
= 0.30 ÷ 100
= 0.3 m
Based on the above information,
1. The number of meters wide for the shelf to buy is 0.3 m
2 And yes it is fitted in the house
Using the required conversion metrics, the width of the shelf at the stis 0.3 meters and will not fit in the house.
Given the Parameters :
Measured width = 0.8 mStore width = 30 cmUsing the appropriate metric conversion values :
100 cm = 1 m
Converting the store measurement into meters :
30 cm ÷ 100 = 0.3 meters
Hence, the shelf you want to purchase measures 0.3 meters.
Since, the measured width and the width of the shelf at the store are different, then the shelf will not fit in.

Based on all student records at Camford University, students spend an average of 5.30 hours per week playing organized sports. The population’s standard deviation is 3.20 hours per week. Based on a sample of 64 students, Healthy Lifestyles Incorporated (HLI) would like to apply the central limit theorem to make various estimates. Compute the standard error of the sample mean. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
The standard error of the sample mean is [tex]\sigma_{\= x } = 0.40[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The population mean is [tex]\mu = 5.30 \ hours[/tex]
The population standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 3.20 \ hours[/tex]
The sample size is [tex]n = 64[/tex]
Generally the standard error of the sample mean is mathematically represented as
[tex]\sigma_{\= x } = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

For example 2<9
A package of 8-count AA batteries has cost = $6.40.
cost per unit count AA batteries will be= total cost of AA batteries/ number of AA batteries
= $6.40/8= $0.8
A package of 20-count AA batteries has cost = $15.80.
cost per unit count AA batteries will be= total cost of AA batteries/ number of AA batteries
= $15.80/20= $0.79
As 0.79<0.8
cost of 20-count AA batteries < cost of 8-count AA batteries

Answer:
[tex](\frac{4}{3},-\frac{10}{3})[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
If the extreme ends of a line segment AC are A[tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and C[tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex].
If a point B(x, y) divides the segment in the ratio of m : n
Then the coordinates of the point B are,
x = [tex]\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n}[/tex]
y = [tex]\frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}[/tex]
If the ends of AC are A(-2, 5) and C(2, -5) and a point B divides it in the ratio of m : n = 5 : 1
Therefore, coordinates of this point will be,
x = [tex]\frac{5\times (2)+1(-2)}{5+1}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{10-2}{5+1}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{8}{6}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]
y = [tex]\frac{5\times (-5)+1(5)}{5+1}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{-25+5}{6}[/tex]
= [tex]-\frac{20}{6}[/tex]
= [tex]-\frac{10}{3}[/tex]
Therefore, coordinates of the point B are [tex](\frac{4}{3},-\frac{10}{3})[/tex].
