testing for a disease can be made more efficient by combining samples. If the samples from two people are combined and the mixture tests​ negative, then both samples are negative. On the other​ hand, one positive sample will always test​ positive, no matter how many negative samples it is mixed with. Assuming the probability of a single sample testing positive is 0.15​, find the probability of a positive result for two samples combined into one mixture. Is the probability low enough so that further testing of the individual samples is rarely​ necessary?w./search?q=%E2%80%8B"At+least%E2%80%8B+one"+is+equivalent+to%E2%80%8B+_______.&oq=%E2%80%8B"At+least%E2%80%8B+one"+is+equivalent+to%E2%80%8B+_______.&aqs=chrome..69i57j0i22i30l3.409j0j4&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 The probability of a positive test result is nothing

Answer:

Freezers made up [tex]\frac{6}{25}[/tex] = 24% of the appliances sold in January.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

10 + 8 + 12 + 12 + 8 = 50 parts were sold in January.

Freezers made up what part of the appliances sold in January?

12 of those were freezers, so:

[tex]\frac{12}{50} = \frac{6}{25} = 0.24[/tex]

Freezers made up [tex]\frac{6}{25}[/tex] = 24% of the appliances sold in January.

The values of x and y that satisfy the graphs are:

(-1, 0), and (-5, 0).

A basic quadratic equation, or a second-order polynomial equation with a single variable, is represented by the equation x : ax² + bx + c = 0, where a≠0 for the variable x. As it is a second-order polynomial equation, which is ensured by the algebraic fundamental theorem, it must have at least one solution.

We can start by simplifying the quadratic equation:

y = (x + 3)² – 4

y = x² + 6x + 9 - 4

y = x² + 6x + 5

Now, we can use various methods to find values of x and y that satisfy this equation. Here are five possible values:

If we substitute x = -1, we get:

y = (-1)² + 6(-1) + 5

y = 0

So, one solution is (-1, 0).

If we substitute x = 0, we get:

y = 0² + 6(0) + 5

y = 5

So, another solution is (0, 5).

If we substitute x = -5, we get:

y = (-5)² + 6(-5) + 5

y = 0

So, another solution is (-5, 0).

To find rational solutions, we can factor in the quadratic expression:

y = x² + 6x + 5

y = (x + 1)(x + 5)

So, the solutions are x = -1 and x = -5. Substituting these values into the equation, we get:

For x = -1, y = (-1)² + 6(-1) + 5 = 0

For x = -5, y = (-5)² + 6(-5) + 5 = 0

So, the solutions are (-1, 0) and (-5, 0).

Answer:

43200 yd³

Step-by-step explanation:

The water reservoir is a rectangular solid that is a three dimensional shape with six quadrilateral faces (cuboid).

This reservoir has a base of 60 yards by 30 yards, and a vertical height of 30 yards. Therefore:

Volume of the reservoir = area of base * vertical height = 60 * 30 * 30 = 54000 yd³

This reservoir hence have a volume of 54000 yd³ when filled up with water.

After 3 months, the height of the water was down to 6 yards therefore the the volume is:

Volume after 3 months = area of base * vertical height = 60 * 30 * 6 = 10800 yd³

The amount of water used after 3 months = volume of water at beginning - volume of water after 3 months

The amount of water used after 3 months = 54000 - 10800 = 43200 yd³

Explanation:

The number 8 from "8 year old boy" can be completely ignored. In my opinion, this is an (un)intentional distraction on your teacher's part.

There are 6 toys to arrange. The order is important.

We have this countdown: 6,5,4,3,2,1

Those values multiply out to 6*5*4*3*2*1 = 720

There are 720 ways to arrange the 6 different toys. Order matters.

---------------------

An alternative approach is to use the nPr permutation formula with n = 6 and r = 6. We use a permutation because order matters.

The nPr formula is

[tex]_{n} P _{r} = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}\\\\[/tex]

where the exclamation marks indicate factorial. For example, 6! = 6*5*4*3*2*1 = 720.

Answer:

  221 : 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio is ...

  students : adults = (boys + girls) : adults = (132 +89) : 14 = 221 : 14

__

That's about 15.8 to 1.

Answer:

221:14

Step-by-step explanation: 132+89=221 (students) and 14 adults and the order is students to adults so 221:14

Answer:

68.1

Step-by-step explanation:

If those angles are congruent, then all side lengths follow the same ratio.

So the smaller triangle side length of 9 over the small side length of the bigger triangle 21.5, is the ratio for all the sides.

9/21.5 = unknown side / 48

unknown side = 48 * 9/21.5

So to find the length of CD, multiply 48 by our ratio to get ~ 20.1

Add that to our 48 and we get 68.1

when we divide one time by 5, we simply take away 1 from the power making it

[tex] {5}^{2m - 1} [/tex]

the other options are wrong

would be right, if we have

but we don't.

and

[tex] {25}^{2m - 1} [/tex]

would even square

and then divide by 25. no, the original excision is nothing like that.
