In a certain community, 8% of all adults over 50 have diabetes. If a health service in this community correctly diagnoses 95% of all persons with diabetes as having the disease and incorrectly diagnoses 2% of all persons without diabetes as having the disease, find the probabilities that
a) the community health service will diagnose an adult over 50 as having diabetes.
b) a person over 50 diagnosed by the health service as having diabetes actually has the disease.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

Given:

Let A is the event of a person over 50 diagnosed by health service.

B1 is the event that an adult over 50 actually has diabetes.

B2 is the event that an adult over 50 does not have diabetes.

P (B1) = 8% = 0.08

And P (B2) = 1 – P (B1)

                  = 1 – 0.08

                  = 0.92

Correctly diagnose of all persons with diabetes= 95%

P (A/B1) = 0.95

Incorrectly diagnose of all persons without diabetes=   2%

P (A/B2) = 0.02

(a) ) the community health service will diagnose an adult over 50 as having diabetes.

P (B1) P (A/B1) = (0.08) (0.95) = 0.076

P (B2) p (A/B2) = (0.92) (0.02) =0.0184

P (B1) P (A/B1) + P (B2) p (A/B2) =  0.076 + 0.0184

                                                     = 0.0944

(b)  A person over 50 diagnosed by the health service as having diabetes actually has the disease.

By using formula:

P (B1/A) = P (B1) P (A/B1) / P (B1) P(A/B1) + P (B2) P (A/B2)

Put all the given values:

= (0.08) (0.95) / (0.08) (0.95) + (0.92) (0.02)

=0.076 / 0.076 + 0.0184

=0.076 / 0.0944

= 0.8050

Answer 2

Using conditional probability, it is found that there is a:

a) 0.0944 = 9.44% probability that the community health service will diagnose an adult over 50 as having diabetes.

b) 0.8051 = 80.51% probability that a person over 50 diagnosed by the health service as having diabetes actually has the disease.

Conditional Probability

[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.

Item a:

The percentages of a positive test is:

95% of 8%(have diabetes).2% of 92%(do not have diabetes).

Hence:

[tex]P(A) = 0.95(0.08) + 0.02(0.92) = 0.0944[/tex]

0.0944 = 9.44% probability that the community health service will diagnose an adult over 50 as having diabetes.

Item b:

Event A: Positive test.Event B: Has the disease.

From item a, [tex]P(A) = 0.0944[/tex].

The probability of both a positive test and having the disease is:

[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.95(0.08)[/tex]

Hence, the conditional probability is:

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.95(0.08)}{0.0944} = 0.8051[/tex]

0.8051 = 80.51% probability that a person over 50 diagnosed by the health service as having diabetes actually has the disease.

Here is a system of equations: 7x-4y=-11
7x+4y=-59 would you rather use addition or subtraction to solve this system. Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

Addition

Step-by-step explanation:

Better to use addition since you already have a -4y and +4y. So if you add them together it will cancel out!

x = -5 and y = -6.

We can use either of the addition or subtraction as both will involve the same process of solving the equation.

We have a system of equations -

7x - 4y = - 11

7x + 4y = - 59

We have to investigate on the process of solving these equations.

What do you mean by System of Linear equations?

A system of linear equations is a collection of one or more linear equations involving the same variables.

According to the question, we have -

7x - 4y = - 11

7x + 4y = - 59

We would subtract second equation from first as follows -

7x - 4y - (7x + 4y) = - 11 - (- 59)

7x - 4y - 7x - 4y = -11 + 59

-8y = 48

y = - 6

therefore -

7x - 4y = - 11

7x - 4(- 6) = -11

7x + 24 = -11

7x = -11 - 24

7x = - 35

x = -5

Hence, x = -5 and y = -6.

We can use either of the addition or subtraction as both will involve the same process of solving the equation.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles are corresponding angles and since the lines are parallel, they are equal

5x+18 =7x-14

Subtract 5x from each side

5x+18 -5x=7x-5x-14

18 = 2x-14

Add 14 to each side

18+14 = 2x-14+14

32 = 2x

Divide by 2

32/2 = 2x/2

16 =x

Answer: x=16

Step-by-step explanation:

make it an equation: the equation 5x+18=7x-14

then, solve for x.

steps :

1. add 14 to both sides to get 5x+32=7x

2. subtract 5x to both sides to get 32=2x

3. divide both sides by 2 to get 16=x

What is graph of a function?

A graph can be defined as a pictorial representation or a diagram that represents data or values in an organized manner. The graph of a function f is the set of all points in the plane of the form (x, f(x)).

For the given situation,

The graph below shows the functions tan(x) and arctan(x) that is tan^-1(x)

In order to have an inverse function for trigonometry, we restrict the domain of each function, so that it is one to one.

A restricted domain gives an inverse function because the graph is one to one and able to pass the horizontal line test.

Thus by restricting the domain [tex](-\frac{\pi }{2} ,\frac{\pi }{2} )[/tex] we can obtain the function [tex]tan(x)[/tex] as [tex]tan^{-1} (x)[/tex].

Hence we can conclude that the restriction that should be applied to the function [tex]y = tanx[/tex] for [tex]tan^{-1} (x)[/tex] to be defined is option (C) restrict the domain to [tex](-\frac{\pi }{2} ,\frac{\pi }{2} )[/tex] is the correct answer.

6. Ethan should shade the region marked B

7. No, point (0, 4) will not be included in the solution set

8. Point (0, -2) will not be included in the solution set

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us explain how to solve the question

The graph represents the equation 2x - 5y = 10

The inequality is 2x - 5y > 10

The sign of inequality is greater than without equal, that means the line represents it must be a dotted line because all the points on the line do not belong to the solution set of the inequality.

To find the area of the solution you must put y on a side and the other term on the other side

∵ 2x - 5y > 10

→ Add 5y to both sides to move y in the other side

∴ 2x - 5y + 5y > 10 + 5y

∴ 2x > 10 + 5y

→ Subtract 10 from both sides to move 10 to the other side

∵ 2x - 10 > 10 - 10 + 5y

∴ 2x - 10 > 5y

→ That means 5y < 2x - 10

5y < 2x - 10

6.

→ y < that means the area of the solutions is under the line

∴ The solutions of the inequality lie in area B

Ethan should shade the region marked B

7.

∵ Point (0, 4) lies above the line in the region marked A

→ That means it does not lie in the area of the solutions

Point (0, 4) will not be included in the solution set

8.

∵ Point (0, -2) lies on the line

∵ All the point on the line did not belong to the solution set as we

Point (0, -2) will not be included in the solution set
