Hi there!

I believe your answer is:
"Add 4 to both sides, and then divide by 2. The solution is x = 12."
»»————- ★ ————-««
Here’s why:
⸻⸻⸻⸻
To solve for 'x', we would have to use inverse operations. We would first have to add four to both sides to undo the negative four. Addition is the opposite of subtraction. We would then divide by 2 to isolate 'x'. Division is the opposite of multiplication.⸻⸻⸻⸻
[tex]\boxed{\text{Solving for 'x'...}}\\\\2x - 4 = 20\\------------\\\rightarrow 2x - 4 + 4 = 20 + 4\\\\\rightarrow 2x = 24\\\\\rightarrow \frac{2x=24}{2}\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{x = 12}[/tex]

A certain virus infects one in every 300 people. A test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 85% of the time if the person has the virus and 5% of the time if the person does not have the virus, (This 5% result is called a false positive.) Let A be the event "the person is Infected" and B be the event "the person tests positive", a) Find the probability that a person has the virus given that they have tested positive, l.e. find P(AB).

This question is solved using the conditional probability concept.
Using this concept, we find that:
a) P(AIB)= 5.3%b) P(A'|B') = 99.9%First, the concept is presented.
Conditional Probability
We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is
[tex]P(A|B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}[/tex]
In which
P(A|B) is the probability of event A happening, given that B happened.
[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.
P(B) is the probability of B happening.
----------------------------------------------------
Question a:
For relation with the formula presented above, I will change events A and B.
Event A: Person is infected.
Event B: Positive test.
Probability of a positive test:
85% = 0.85 out of 1/300 (person has the virus).5% = 0.05 out of 299/300(person does not have the virus)Thus:
[tex]P(B) = 0.85\frac{1}{300} + 0.05\frac{299}{300} = \frac{0.85\times1 + 0.05\times299}{300} = 0.0527[/tex]
Probability of a positive test and the person is infected.
85% = 0.85 out of 1/300. Thus:
[tex]P(A \cap B) = \frac{0.85}{300} = 0.0028[/tex]
Desired probability:
[tex]P(A|B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)} = \frac{0.0028}{0.0527} = 0.053[/tex]
0.053*100% = 5.3%, thus:
P(AIB)= 5.3%
---------------------
Question b:
Event A: Does not have the virus
Event B: Test negative.
Probability of a negative test:
100% - 85% = 15% = 0.15 out of 1/300 (person has the virus).100% - 5% = 95% = 0.95 out of 299/300(person does not have the virus)Thus:
[tex]P(B) = 0.15\frac{1}{300} + 0.95\frac{299}{300} = \frac{0.15\times1 + 0.95\times299}{300} = 0.9473[/tex]
Probability of a negative test and the person is not infected.
0.95 out of 299/300
Thus:
[tex]P(A \cap B) = \frac{0.95\times299}{300} = 0.9468[/tex]
Desired probability:
[tex]P(A|B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)} = \frac{0.9468}{0.9473} = 0.999[/tex]
0.999*100% = 99.9%, so:
P(A'|B') = 99.9%

An article describes an experiment to determine the effectiveness of mushroom compost in removing petroleum contaminants from soil. Out of 155 seeds planted in soil containing 3% mushroom compost by weight, 74 germinated. Out of 155 seeds planted in soil containing 5% mushroom compost by weight, 86 germinated. Can you conclude that the proportion of seeds that germinate differs with the percent of mushroom compost in the soil
Solution :
Let [tex]p_1[/tex] and [tex]p_2[/tex] represents the proportions of the seeds which germinate among the seeds planted in the soil containing [tex]3\%[/tex] and [tex]5\%[/tex] mushroom compost by weight respectively.
To test the null hypothesis [tex]H_0: p_1=p_2[/tex] against the alternate hypothesis [tex]H_1:p_1 \neq p_2[/tex] .
Let [tex]\hat p_1, \hat p_2[/tex] denotes the respective sample proportions and the [tex]n_1, n_2[/tex] represents the sample size respectively.
[tex]$\hat p_1 = \frac{74}{155} = 0.477419[/tex]
[tex]n_1=155[/tex]
[tex]$p_2=\frac{86}{155}=0.554839[/tex]
[tex]n_2=155[/tex]
The test statistic can be written as :
[tex]$z=\frac{(\hat p_1 - \hat p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1 \times (1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}} + \frac{\hat p_2 \times (1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}}}[/tex]
which under [tex]H_0[/tex] follows the standard normal distribution.
We reject [tex]H_0[/tex] at [tex]0.05[/tex] level of significance, if the P-value [tex]<0.05[/tex] or if [tex]|z_{obs}|>Z_{0.025}[/tex]
Now, the value of the test statistics = -1.368928
The critical value = [tex]\pm 1.959964[/tex]
P-value = [tex]$P(|z|> z_{obs})= 2 \times P(z< -1.367928)$[/tex]
[tex]$=2 \times 0.085667$[/tex]
= 0.171335
Since the p-value > 0.05 and [tex]$|z_{obs}| \ngtr z_{critical} = 1.959964$[/tex], so we fail to reject [tex]H_0[/tex] at [tex]0.05[/tex] level of significance.
Hence we conclude that the two population proportion are not significantly different.
Conclusion :
There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the [tex]\text{proportion}[/tex] of the seeds that [tex]\text{germinate differs}[/tex] with the percent of the [tex]\text{mushroom compost}[/tex] in the soil.
What is the slope line that passes through the points (10, 8) and (-15, 18)? Write your answer in simplest form
Answer: [tex]y=-\frac{2}{5}x+12[/tex]

Answer:
D. 157
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We want to find the value of the expression 4(x²+3)-2y is when x=-6 and y=-1/2
Let's first simplify the expression, as that will likely make it easier
Distribute 4 to both x² and 3
4x²+12-2y
That's the expression
Substitute -6 as x into the expression
4(-6)²+12-2y
Raise (-6) to the second power
4*36+12-2y
Multiply 36 by 4
144+12-2y
Add 12 and 144 together
156-2y
Now the expression is 156-2y
But remember that we know that y=-1/2, and we haven't substituted it into the expression yet
Substitute -1/2 as y into the expression
156-2(-1/2)
Multiply
156+2/2
Simplify
156+1
Add

Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that the expression is referring to sin²(2πft) and not sin²(2)πft, we can solve as follows:
One trigonometric identity states that sin²x+cos²x = 1. We want to express this in terms of cos²x, so we need to solve for sin²x. Subtracting cos²x from both sides, we get 1-cos²x = sin²x. Plugging (2πft) for x, we get
1-cos²(2πft) = sin²(2πft)
We can plug that into our equation to get
P = I₀²R(1-cos²(2πft)), or D

A car is traveling at a constant speed of 60 miles per hour. How many feet does it travel in 10 seconds?
Answer:
880 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
First! We have to establish how many feet the car travels per hour.
60 (number of miles per hour) x 5280 (number of feet in a mile) = 316,800 (number of feet in an hour)
Next, since we know that there are 60 minutes in an hour we are going to divide our "number of feet in an hour" by 60 to get the "number of feet in a minute"
316,800 ÷ 60 = 5280
Once again, we are going to divide our "number of feet in a minute" by 60 to get the "number of feet per second".
5280 ÷ 60 = 88
Finally! We will multiple our "number of feet per second" by 10 to get how many feet the car can travel in 10 seconds.
88 × 10 = 880
So! Our car can travel 880 feet in 10 seconds.
Hope this Helps! :)
