Answer:

Drug User Not a drug user Totals

Test positive 475 475 950

Test negative 25 9025 9050

Totals 500 9500 10,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Drug User Not a drug user Totals

Test positive 475 475 950

Test negative 25 9025 9050

Totals 500 9500 10,000

As we know that 5% of all people are drug users

Total drug users=5% of 10,000=0.05(10,000)=500

Total non drug users= Total people - drug users= 10,000-500=9500

or total non drug users=95% of 10,000=0.95(10,000)=9500

Test is correct for 95% of times means that 95% times drug users test results is positive and non drug users test results is negative.

Test positive for drug user= 95% of 500=0.95(500)=475

Test negative for non drug user= 95% of 500 = 0.95(9500)=9025

Test is correct for 95% of times and it means that 5% of times test is not correct. It means that 5% of times drug users test results is negative and non drug users test results is positive.

Test negative for drug user= 5% of 500=0.05(500)=25

Test positive for non drug user= 5% of 9500 = 0.05(9500)=475

What is the difference of the polynomials?(–2x3y2 + 4x2y3 – 3xy4) – (6x4y – 5x2y3 – y5)A–6x4y – 2x3y2 + 9x2y3 – 3xy4 + y5B–6x4y

saul85 [17]

We have to calculate the difference of the given polynomials, we follows as:

$(-2x^{3}y^{2}+4x^{2}y^{3}-3xy^{4})-(6x^{4}y-5x^{2}y^{3}-y^{5})$

After opening the brackets, the signs of all the terms changes as there is negative sign before the bracket.

= $(-2x^{3}y^{2}+4x^{2}y^{3}-3xy^{4})-6x^{4}y+5x^{2}y^{3}+y^{5})$

Combining all the like terms, we get as

= $(-2x^{3}y^{2})+(4x^{2}y^{3}+5x^{2}y^{3})-3xy^{4}-6x^{4}y+y^{5}$

= $-2x^{3}y^{2}+9x^{2}y^{3}-3xy^{4}-6x^{4}y+y^{5}$

Option A is the correct answer.

Ramona's backyard is fenced and represented by parallelogram YARD with measures in meters. She installed a 12-meters fence to se

Alisiya [41]

The fencing line x is the height of a rectangle triangle of base = y, hypothenuse of 9 m, so we use Pythagoras theorem to solve:

hyp^2 = height^2 + base^2
9^2 = x^2 + y^2
x^2 = 81 - y^2

we can see that x is also the height of another rectangle triangle of base = 15 - y, hypothenuse of 12 m, so we use Pythagoras theorem to solve:
hyp^2 = height^2 + base^2
12^2 = x^2 + (15 - y)^2

lets expand:
144 = x^2 + 225 - 30y + y^2

substitute x^2 from the first equation in the last:
144 = 81 - y^2 + 225 - 30y + y^2
144 = 81 + 225 - 30y
30y = -144 + 81 + 225
y = 5.4 m

substitute in the fence equation:
x^2 = 81 - y^2
x^2 = 81 - 5.4^2
x = 7.2 m that is the length of the fence

A scientist is studying tulips and daffodils. The scientist estimates that there are 150 tulips in the population of 600 tulips

Flauer [41]

Answer: Last Option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Total number of tulips and daffodils = 600

Number of tulips = 150

Number of daffodils is given by

$600-150\\\\=450$

So, We can get the ratio of tulips to daffodils which is given by

$Tulips:Daffodils\\\\150:450\\\\1:3$

So, we need to choose a random sample of flowers to represent the population.

1) He can choose 50 flowers.

As there are 1:3 of tulip and daffodils flowers but if we divide 50 by 4 it will give a decimal number, so it can't represent the required thing.

2) He can choose 25 tulips and 25 daffodils

As they are divided into 1:1 so, it can't represent the 1:3 tulip to daffodils population.

3) He can choose 15 tulips and 60 daffodils

As it is divided into 1:4 inspite of 1:3.So it can't represent the required population.

4) He can choose 10 tulips and 30 daffodils.

So, Last option which states that he can choose 10 tulips and 30 daffodils as in this case the ratio of tulips to daffodils is 1:3.

Hence, Last Option is correct.
