Suppose that 2% of the students in a school have head lice and the test for head lice is accurate 75% of the time. What is the probability that a student in the school has head lice, given that the test came back positive? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.
Answer: Probability of getting a student in the school has head lice given that the test came back positive is 0.058.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Let E be the event that the student actually having head lice.
Let A be the event that the report shows positive.
Since there are 2% of the students in a school having lead lice.
P(E) = 0.02
P(E')=1-0.02=0.98
Similarly, the probability that the test for head lice is accurate = 75% of the time.
So, [tex]P(A\mid E)=75\%=0.75\\\\Similarly,\\\\P(A\mid E')=1-0.75=0.25[/tex]
We need to find the probability that a student in the school has head lice , given that the test came back positive.
So, By using Bayes Theorem, we get that
[tex]P(E\mid A)=\dfrac{P(A\mid E).P(E)}{P(A\mid E).P(E)+P(A\mid E').P(E')}\\\\P(E\mid A)=\dfrac{0.02\times 0.75}{0.02\times 0.75+0.98\times 0.25}\\\\P(E\mid A)=\dfrac{0.015}{0.015+0.245}\\\\P(E\mid A)=\dfrac{0.015}{0.26}\\\\P(E\mid A)=0.0576\approx 0.058=5.8\%[/tex]
Hence, Probability of getting a student in the school has head lice given that the test came back positive is 0.058.
Must a decimal divisor and a decimal dividend have the same number of decimal places in order to have a whole number quotient? write a division equation using two decimal numbers to support your answer.
Answer:
NO. They do not have to be equal
Step-by-step explanation:
A whole number takes place when two conditions are satisfied:
1. The numerator or the dividend is greater than the divisor.
For example, when you divide 0.1 by 0.002.
The dividend 0.1 is greater than 0.002
2. The divisor is small than the dividend.
This rule is the same as one above.
for example:
the quotient x is given by [tex]\frac{1}{0.25}\\ = 4[/tex]

Enter a recursive rule for the geometric sequence. 10, −80, 640, −5120, ...
a(1)=
a(n)=
Answer:
The value is:
a(1)=10 and a(n)=(-8)×a(n-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given a sequence as:
10, -80 , 640 , -5120 ,.........
since by looking at the sequence we could see that it is a geometric progression (G.P.) with common ratio -8.
Also a(1) denotes the first term of the sequence and a(n) denotes the nth term of the sequence.
a(1)=10
Also a(n)=(-8)×a(n-1)
since a(1)=10
a(2)=(-8)×10=-80
a(3)=(-8)×(-80)=640
a(4)=(-8)×640=-5120
and so on.
Hence the answer is:
a(1)=10 and a(n)=(-8)×a(n-1)

Triangle ABC has vertices A(5, 3) , B(3, 7) , and C(1, 4) . Triangle ABC is dilated, and the vertices of the image are A′(2.5, 1.5) , B′(1.5, 3.5) , and C′(0.5, 2) . The center of dilation is the origin.
What is the scale factor of the dilation?
0.25
0.5
2
4
I believe the answer would be 0.5
Hope this helps ;}
Answer: The correct answer is (B) 0.5.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that A(5, 3) , B(3, 7) and C(1, 4) are the vertices of ΔABC and A′(2.5, 1.5) , B′(1.5, 3.5) and C′(0.5, 2) are the vertices of ΔA'B'C'.
We are to find the scale factor of the dilation of the centre of dilation is origin.
We know that the scale factor of dilation is given by the following formula:
[tex]S_c=\dfrac{\textup{length of a side of the dilated figure}}{\textup{length of the corresponding side of the original figure}}.[/tex]
We can calculate the lengths of the corresponding sides AB and A'B' of ΔABC and ΔA'B'C' respectively using distance formula as follows:
[tex]AB=\sqrt{(3-5)^2+(7-3)^2}=\sqrt{4+16}=\sqrt{20}=2\sqrt5,\\\\A'B'=\sqrt{(1.5-2.5)^2+(3.5-1.5)^2}=\sqrt{1+4}=\sqrt{5}.[/tex]
Therefore, the scale factor for the dilation is given by
[tex]S_c=\dfrac{A'B'}{AB}=\dfrac{\sqrt5}{2\sqrt5}=\dfrac{1}{2}=0.5.[/tex]
Thus, the required scale factor is (B) 0.5.
Camryn practices the trumpet every 11th day and the flute every 3rd day. Camryn practiced both today. How many days until Camryn practices both the flute and trumpet again?
The correct answer is 33 days. The least number of days until Camryn practices both the flute and trumpet again is 33 days.
To determine how many days until Camryn practices both the flute and trumpet again, we need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two periods: every 11th day for the trumpet and every 3rd day for the flute.
The LCM of two numbers is the smallest number that is a multiple of both numbers. To find the LCM of 11 and 3, we can list the multiples of each number until we find a common multiple:
Multiples of 3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, ...
Multiples of 11: 11, 22, 33, ...
The smallest common multiple of 3 and 11 is 33. Therefore, Camryn will practice both instruments again in 33 days.
Alternatively, we can calculate the LCM using the prime factorization of the two numbers. Since 3 is a prime number and 11 is also a prime number, the LCM is simply the product of the two:
LCM(3, 11) = 3*11 = 33
Thus, the least number of days until Camryn practices both the flute and trumpet again is 33 days.
This table shows the daily high temperature, in Fahrenheit, for two cities for ten days. City A 90 85 84 85 80 82 83 85 89 82 City B 77 78 98 91 78 76 78 85 84 71 Which conclusion can be drawn from the data? A: The temperature range between the maximum and minimum values for city A is greater than the temperature range between the maximum and minimum values for city B. B: The median and mode are different for city B. C: The median is less for city A than for city B. D: On average, city A was warmer than city B.
I would have to say it would be D. On average, city A was warmer than city B.

Consider this system of equations: y = x2 y = x + k For which value of k does the system have no real number solutions? For which value of k does the system have one real number solution? For which value of k does the system have two real number solutions?
For the given system of equations, the value of k determines the number of real number solutions.
Explanation:In order to determine the number of real number solutions for the system of equations y = x^2 and y = x + k, we need to analyze the discriminant of the quadractic equation x^2 - (x + k) = 0.
If the discriminant is negative (less than zero), the system has no real number solutions.If the discriminant is zero, the system has one real number solution.If the discriminant is positive (greater than zero), the system has two real number solutions.The discriminant of the quadratic equation x^2 - (x + k) = 0 can be calculated as b^2 - 4ac, where a = 1, b = -1, and c = -k.
For no real number solutions: b^2 - 4ac < 0
For one real number solution: b^2 - 4ac = 0
For two real number solutions: b^2 - 4ac > 0
