Type the probability that the numbers 263 will be the first three digits of a code number.

A study of 31,000 hospital admissions in New York State found that 4% of the admissions led to treatment-caused injuries. One-se

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) probability a person admitted to the hospital will suffer a treatment-caused injury due to negligence

P(injury) = 4%

P(negligence) = 1/4 = 0.25

We need to find probability (injury)(negligence)

P(injury) * P(negligence) = 0.04*0.25 = 0.01

b) probability a person admitted to the hospital will die from a treatment-caused injury

P(injury) = 4%

P(death) = 1/7

P(Injury) *P(death) = 0.04/7 = 0.00571

c) In the case of a negligent treatment-caused injury, what is the probability a malpractice claim will be paid

P(claim) = 1/7.5

P(payment) = 1/2

P(claim)*P(payment) = 1/7.5 * 1/2 = 0.06

If ce = 7x+4, find the value of x

Alex787 [66]

Hey there,

To find the value of x we can take the two, CD or DE and set them equal to CE.

First step is set the lines equal to each other:

x + 3 + 8x - 9 = 7x + 4

Now we combine like terms:

9x - 6 = 7x + 4

Then we subtract 7x from both sides:

2x - 6 = 4

Add 6 to both sides:

2x = 10

Lastly we divide both sides by 2:

x = 5

So the value of x would have to be 5.

Hope I helped,

Sarah can bicycle a loop around the north part of Lake Washington in 2 hours and 30 minutes. If she could increase her average s

netineya [11]

Answer:

The length of the loop is approximately 49.58 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time required to ride bicycle in loop = 2 hours and 30 mins

Now we know that;

60 mins = 1 hour

30 mins =0.5 hour

so 2 hour and 30 mins = $2+0.5 = 2.5\ hrs$

∴ Time required to ride bicycle in loop = 2.5 hrs

Let the speed at which she is riding the bicycle be 's'.

and let Total distance of the loop be 'd'

Now we know that;

Distance is given by speed multiplied by time.

framing in equation form we get;

$d =2.5s \ \ \ \ equation \ 1$

Now Given:

If she increase the speed by 1 km/hr, it would reduce her time around the loop by 7 minutes.

Hence we can say;

Speed = $s+1$

Also time will be reduce to 7 mins.

7 mins =0.12 hrs

Now time = 2.5-0.12 =2.38

Again Distance is given by speed multiplied by time.

framing in equation form we get;

$d =2.38(s+1) \ \ \ \ equation \ 2$

Now distance is same for both so we will calculate the speed by equating the equations.

$2.5s = 2.38(s+1)\\\\2.5s=2.38s+2.38\\\\2.5s-2.38s =2.38\\\\0.12s= 2.38\\\\s =\frac{2.38}{0.12} \approx 19.83\ km/hr$

Now Speed = 19.83 km/hr

Length of the loop (d) = $19.83\times 2.5 = 49.58 \ km$

Hence the length of the loop is approximately 49.58 km.

Line jk passes through points j(-4,-5) and k(-6,3 if the equation of the lines is written in slope-intercept form,y=my+b what is

lidiya [134]

Written in 2-point form, the equation of the line is
y = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)·(x-x1) +y1
y = (3-(-5))/(-6-(-4))·(x-(-4)) + (-5)
y = 8/-2·(x +4) - 5
y = -4x -21

The value of b is -21.
