Step-by-step explanation:

Hello I think I can help.

Lets go over A then work on B to see if me walking through it can help you understand better.

Lets use some real world stuff. Say that the big long rectangle with the 3 and the x in it is a big truck, driving down the road.

Now inside that truck we have a 3 and a X as it shows in the picture. And then on the outside of the truck it shows what we have total inside the truck which is 15.

Now 3 + x may not sound equal to 15 but its math and if you see the = sign between two things they are equal no matter how weird it may seems.

So inside the truck, the 3 + x is equal to the outside of the truck saying that inside it is 15.

Lets move onto the B and do the same thing using the truck.

Now inside the truck it is saying 3 multiplied by x this time. On the outside it is saying there is a total of 15 just like before.

It looks to me you don't even have to solve it as the model seems to already be solved. But lets explain it.

Just like the problem says, (15 = 3 times x) you can see the 3 times x in the truck by the 3 separate x's inside the truck. And on the outside you can see the 15, which is the total amount inside the truck. And we know this is true because in the equation it says 15 = 3 times x.

I am not sure if you have to solve these but we can go over that real quick as well since it is very simple.

To find what x is in these equations all you want to do is take the outside of the truck (which is 15) and divide it by the number we know (3), not the variable (which is x).

So if we do this :

(The outside of the truck or the one number on its own)

15

(Divide it by the other number we know of inside the truck, not the letter/variable)

3

And we get :

15/3 = 5

x = 5

And that is our answer and you can do the same thing to part A.

You can also check to see if you're right by doing the same thing but backwards.

This means we use multiplication and go right to left (5 and 3) instead of left to right like we did last time (15 and 3).

If we multiply the 5 and the 3 we get 15 which is the other number in the equation and proves we are correct!

I do hope this helps.

If you have any questions or concerns feel free to message me or comment! :)

An automobile manufacturer claims that its car has a 37.2 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted to test the MPG for this car since it is believed that the car has an incorrect manufacturer's MPG rating. After testing 120 cars, they found a mean MPG of 37.1. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 1.1. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used. Make a decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.

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.
