GrumpyCorp drug tests all of the recent college graduates it hires each year. The drug test currently used correctly determines drug users 96% of the time(a Positive test) and correctly determines non-users 90% of the time(a Negative test). A recent study concluded that 36% of college students use drugs. A potential employee has been tested and the result was Negative for drug use.
a) Construct ALL necessary probabilities using proper notation(Example: P(D) for a "drug user"). (Hint: there should be 6 total)
b) Find the Probability of a Negative test, by showing use of the above Probabilities first, and then followed by the proper calculation.
c) Use Bayes' Theorem to find the probability that a person who tests Positive actually was not a Drug User. Set up using Conditional Probability Notation and then substitute in numeric values.

Answers

Answer 1

Solution :

Drug : Drug user

T : Test positive

a). [tex]P(D) =0.36[/tex]

    [tex]$P\left(\frac{T}{D} \right) = 0.96$[/tex]

    [tex]$P\left(\frac{T^c}{D^c} \right) = 0.90$[/tex]

b). [tex]$P(T^c)= P\left(\frac{T^c}{D^c}\right) \times P(D^c)+ P\left(\frac{T^c}{D}\right) \times P(D)$[/tex]

               [tex]$=0.9 \times (1-0.36) + (1-0.96) \times 0.36$[/tex]

               = 0.5904

c). [tex]$P\left(\frac{D^c}{T}\right) = \frac{P\left(\frac{T}{D^c}\right). P(D^c)}{P\left(\frac{T}{D^c}\right). P(D^c) + P\left(\frac{T}{D}\right). P(D)}$[/tex]

                  [tex]$=\frac{(1-0.90) \times (1-0.36)}{(1-0.90) \times (1-0.36)+(0.96 \times 0.36)}$[/tex]

                 [tex]$=0.15625$[/tex]

A function, f(x), passes through the point (0,2). Another function is represented by the equation g(x)=x^2−2x−3. What is the y-intercept of g(x) and which function has the greater y-intercept

Answers

Answer:

The y-intercept of function f(x) is 2.The y-intercept of function g(x) is -3.

Therefore, we conclude that function f(x) has a greater y-intercept.

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept of any function can be determined by checking the value of y at x = 0.

Important Tip

A point where the graph meets the y-axis — y-intercept.

Determining the y-intercept of the function f(x)

Given the function f(x) passes through the point (0,2).

It means at x = 0, the value of y = 2

Thus, the y-intercept of function f(x) is 2.

Determining the y-intercept of the function g(x)

Given the function g(x)

[tex]g\left(x\right)=x^2-2x-3[/tex]

substitute x = 0 in the function equation

[tex]g\left(0\right)=\left(0\right)^2-2\left(0\right)-3[/tex]

[tex]g\left(0\right)=0-0-3[/tex]

[tex]g\left(0\right)=-3[/tex]

It means at x = 0, the value of y = -3

Thus, the y-intercept of function g(x) is -3.

Conclusion:

The y-intercept of function f(x) is 2.The y-intercept of function g(x) is -3.

As 2 > -3

Therefore, we conclude that function f(x) has a greater y-intercept.

An experimental psychologist plans a study in which a crucial step is offering participants a food reward. It is important that the three food rewards be equal in appeal. Thus, a prestudy was designed in which participants were asked which of the rewards they preferred. Of the 60 participants, 16 preferred cupcakes, 26 preferred candy bars, and 18 favored dried apricots. Do these scores suggest that the different foods are differentially preferred by people in general? (Use the .05 significance level.)
You must use all five steps in hypothesis testing:
Restate the question as a research hypothesis and a null hypothesis about the populations.
Determine the characteristics of the comparison distribution.
Determine the cutoff sample score on the comparison distribution at which the null hypothesis should be rejected.
Determine your sample’s score on the comparison distribution.
Decide whether to reject the null hypothesis.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

[tex]\mathbf{H_o: there \ is \ no \ significanr \ difference \ between \ observed \ and \ expected \ value }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{H_a: there \ is \ significanr \ difference \ between \ observed \ and \ expected \ value }[/tex]

The characteristic of the comparison is a uniform distribution.

Since there are three categories from the data, then: the data obeys a U(0,3) distribution. However, supposed it happened that different food had the same appeal, thus, there will be uniform distribution in the preference score.

[tex]Degree \ of \ freedom \ df = n - 1 \\ \\ df = 3 - 1 = 2[/tex]

At 0.05;

Thus, at 0.05 and df of 2, the cutoff sample score at which [tex]H_o[/tex] will be reject is the critical value [tex]\mathbf{X_{0.05,2}^2 \ which \ is \ = 5.991}[/tex]

Prefered     Observed    Expected     Expected     (O - E)       (O - E)²/ E

                   frequency   frequency     proportions

Cup cakes           16        20                  0.333          -4.00           0.800

Candy bars          26       20                 0.333             6.00           1.800

Dried apricots      18        20                 0.333            -2.00          0.200

Total                     60       20                     1                 -2.00           2.800

Thus the sample score is [tex]\mathbf{X^2_{observed} = 2.800}[/tex]

Decision rule: To reject the null hypothesis if the observed test statistic is higher than the critical value.

Conclusion: We fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that different foods have the same appeal to different people.

Answer:

[tex]\frac{x - 20}{ x^2 + x - 20} = \frac{5}{9(x-4)}+\frac{4}{(x+5)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\frac{x - 20}{ x^2 + x - 20}[/tex]

Required

Decompose into partial fraction

Start by factorizing the denominator:

[tex]x^2 + x - 20 =x^2 + 5x -4x- 20[/tex]

[tex]x^2 + x - 20 =x(x + 5)-4(x+5)[/tex]

[tex]x^2 + x - 20 =(x-4)(x+5)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\frac{x - 20}{ x^2 + x - 20} = \frac{A}{x-4}+\frac{B}{x+5}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]\frac{x - 20}{ x^2 + x - 20} = \frac{A(x+5)+B(x-4)}{(x-4)(x+5)}[/tex]

Cancel out the denominator

[tex]x - 20 = A(x+5)+B(x-4)}[/tex]

Open brackets

[tex]x - 20 = Ax+5A+Bx-4B[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]x - 20 = Ax+Bx+5A-4B[/tex]

[tex]x - 20 = (A+B)x+5A-4B[/tex]

By comparison;

[tex](A +B)x = x[/tex] ==>[tex]A + B = 1[/tex]

[tex]5A - 4B = 1[/tex]

Make A the subject in [tex]A + B = 1[/tex]

[tex]A = 1 - B[/tex]

Substitute 1 - B for A in [tex]5A - 4B = 1[/tex]

[tex]5(1-B) -4B = 1[/tex]

[tex]5-5B -4B = 1[/tex]

[tex]5-9B = 1[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]-9B = 1 - 5[/tex]

[tex]-9B = - 4[/tex]

[tex]B = \frac{4}{9}[/tex]

[tex]A = 1 - B[/tex]

[tex]A = 1 - \frac{4}{9}[/tex]

[tex]A = \frac{9-4}{9}[/tex]

[tex]A = \frac{5}{9}[/tex]

So:

[tex]\frac{x - 20}{ x^2 + x - 20} = \frac{A}{x-4}+\frac{B}{x+5}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x - 20}{ x^2 + x - 20} = \frac{5}{9(x-4)}+\frac{4}{(x+5)}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

d = 5√2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the distance formula: d = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²]

Plug in the values with your endpoints.

d = √[(-6 - (-7))² + (4 - 11)²]

Solve within the parentheses.

d = √[(1)² + (-7)²]

Solve the exponents.

d = √[1 + 49]

Solve within the brackets.

d = √50

Simplify the square root.

25 • 2 = 50

√25 • √2 = √50

5 • √2 = √50

d = 5√2 units
