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]

Heidi’s older sister needs to take either Chemistry (C), Geometry (G), or Physics (P) this year. She can take the class during any one of six periods (1 through 6). Is there more than one way to draw a tree diagram to model this situation? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

Yes. You can make a tree diagram with each subject at the top and the periods as the branches or with the periods at the top and each subject as a branch. Both ways provide the same number of​ outcomes, 18

Step-by-step explanation:

No, there is only one way to draw a tree diagram to model this situation.

What is Combination?

An arrangement of objects where the order in which the objects are selected does not matter.

No, there is only one way to draw a tree diagram to model this situation. The reason for this is that the choices for the classes and periods are mutually exclusive and exhaustive.

Starting with the first branch, there are three possible classes (C, G, or P) that the sister can take.

From each of these branches, there are six possible periods (1 through 6) that the sister can take the class.

Therefore, the tree diagram will have 3 branches at the top level, each with 6 branches at the next level, for a total of 18 possible outcomes.

If we try to draw a different tree diagram, we will end up with the same possible outcomes, just with a different arrangement of the branches.

Hence, there is only one way to draw a tree diagram to model this situation.

brian is buying cans of baked beans for a camping trip.each can is 15 ounces.if he buys 7 cans,about how many pounds of beans is he buying?
2 pounds
5 pounds
7 pounds
10 pounds​

Answers

Answer:

about 7 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

NOTE: 16 ounces equals a pound

so, we would do 15x7 which equals 105 ounces. then we would do 105/16 since 105 is the ounces in total and 16 ounces=1 pound. so our answer would equal to 6.5625. which rounded off would be about 7 pounds. I hope this is correct /helps!:)

C) Candle A burns faster because it has a rate of burning that is 1 millimeter faster per hour than Candle B (coefficient in front of t)

D) 58 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Candle A Went down 24 in 4 hours so thats 6 millimeters per hour.

A) h= 201-6t

Candle A Went down 24 in 4 hours so thats 6 millimeters per hour (how i found the coeffiecient in front of t.)

B) Candle B is 290 millimeters tall and burns at 5 millimeters per hour

(Just interpreted the given equation)

C) Candle A burns faster because it has a rate of burning that is 1 millimeter faster per hour than Candle B, although candle B is still 50% larger than candle A at the beginning of burning.

D) 290=5t

t=58 hours

It would take 58 hours for Candle B to burn down completely, from the given equation.

To complete this, just plug in the numbers for the variables it says it is to the equation above. For example, the first one is X = -4. Put -4 into the equation for X and solve.

y = 6(-4) + 8
y = -24 + 8
y = -16
