It is estimated that 3% of the athletes competing in a large tournament are users of an illegal drug to enhance performance. Athletes are tested to see if they are using illegal drugs or not using illegal drugs and the test can come back positive or negative. The test for this drug is 90% accurate for non-drug users (this means there is a 90% chance the test comes back negative if the person is a non-user). What is the probability that an athlete tests negative and is not a user of an illegal drug
Answer:
0.873 = 87.3% probability that an athlete tests negative and is not a user of an illegal drug
Step-by-step explanation:
Conditional Probability
We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
In which
P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.
P(A) is the probability of A happening.
In this question:
Event A: Not a user of an illegal drug.
Event B: Tests negative.
The test for this drug is 90% accurate for non-drug users (this means there is a 90% chance the test comes back negative if the person is a non-user)
This means that [tex]P(B|A) = 0.9[/tex]
It is estimated that 3% of the athletes competing in a large tournament are users of an illegal drug to enhance performance.
So 100 - 3 = 97% probability that the athlete does not use the drug, so [tex]P(A) = 0.97[/tex]
What is the probability that an athlete tests negative and is not a user of an illegal drug
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.9*0.97 = 0.873[/tex]
0.873 = 87.3% probability that an athlete tests negative and is not a user of an illegal drug

A counselor at the local chapter of Impulse Buyers Anonymous had just conducted a weekend workshop on how to be less suggestible. To find out if the workshop had any effect, she had each participant fill out a questionnaire that measured suggestibility, with high scores indicating high suggestibility. (Several such questionnaires exist.) Suppose that the national norm (mean) for the questionnaire that was used was 25 and that the participants produced the following statistics. Construct a 95 percent confidence interval and sentence of interpretation that tells about the effect of the workshop.ΣΧ = 242 ΣΧ2 = 5,413 N = 11
Answer:
(20.322 ; 23.678)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
ΣΧ = 242 ; ΣΧ2 = 5,413 ; N = 11
Mean, m = ΣΧ / N = 242 / 11 = 22
Standard deviation = sqrt[(ΣΧ2/N) - (ΣΧ/N)²]
Standard deviation = sqrt[(5413/11) - (242/11)^2]
Standard deviation = sqrt(8.0909090) = 2.84
Confidence interval = m ± Zcritical * s/sqrt(n)
Zcritical at 95% = 1.96
Lower boundary = 22 - 1.96*2.84/sqrt(11)
Lower boundary = 22 - (1.96 * 0.8562922) = 20.322
Upper boundary = 22 + (1.96 * 0.8562922) = 23.678

The ground temperature at airport is 12 degrees. The temperature decreases by 5.2 degrees for every mile above ground. What would be temperature outside plane located at 3 miles above the airport
Answer:
The outside plane located at 3 miles above the airport is of -3.6 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ground temperature at airport is 12 degrees. The temperature decreases by 5.2 degrees for every mile above ground.
This means that the temperature in n miles above ground is given by:
[tex]T(n) = 12 - 5.2n[/tex]
What would be temperature outside plane located at 3 miles above the airport
This is T(3). So
[tex]T(3) = 12 - 5.2*3 = 12 - 15.6 = -3.6[/tex]
The outside plane located at 3 miles above the airport is of -3.6 degrees.

Santa and Mrs Claus are eating cookies santa ate 10/20 of the cookies and Mrs Claus ate the rest what fraction did Mrs Claus eat ?
Answer: 10/20 or 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
10 is the half of twenty, if she’s gonna eat the rest, she’s gonna eat the other half
Santa ate 10/20. right?
so you would subtract 10 from 20
which would give you 10
so Mrs. Claus also ate 10/20
-----
Another way to solve:
since 10/20 = 50%
Mrs. Claus ate the same amount
because 50% is half of 100% ( 1 whole )
So, Mrs. Claus ate 10/20

What is the height of a triangle, if the area is 20 square inches and the base is 5 inches? Be sure that you can explain how you found your answer.
so normally we would be finding the area of a triangle which is a=h*b/2
but in this case we are finding the height so theirs 3 ways to do this but i prefer the basic way
20=1/2(5)h
20=2.5
8=h
and to find out if that was correct lets do 8*5=40 40/ 2 =20 so this is correct
the height is 8

If a figure is dilated by a factor of 1.5, the area of the figure will change by a factor of
Answer:
The figure will change by a factor of 2.25.
Step-by-step explanation:
When the lengths (1-dimensional) change by a factor 1.5 (the definition of dilating a figure), the area (2-dimensional) will change by a factor 1.5 to the power of the quotient of the values of the dimensions, which is 2/1 = 2. So the area will change by a factor of 1.5^2 = 2.25.

Wen and five friends equally share 1/3 of a pan of snack bars. Which expression shows how much of the pan each person gets?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm pretty sure the expression is 1/3 ÷ 6
This is because there are 6 friends in all and you are splitting 1/3 of the pan snack bars to each of them.
So, what your splitting/cutting/dividing would be the dividend (1/3) and then the friends would be the divisor (6)
