Nathan had an infection, and his doctor wanted him to take penicillin. Because Nathan’s father and paternal grandfather were allergic to penicillin, Nathan had a 75% chance of having the same allergy. The doctor performed a skin test to see whether Nathan would react to it. The test is 98% accurate. What is the probability that Nathan is allergic to penicillin and the test predicts it?0.005

Answer:

Answer:

Option C is right answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Nathan had an infection, and his doctor wanted him to take penicillin. Because Nathan’s father and paternal grandfather were allergic to penicillin, Nathan had a 75% chance of having the same allergy. The doctor performed a skin test to see whether Nathan would react to it. The test is 98% accurate.

Probability that Nathan is allergic to pennicillin and the test predicts it

=Prob (Nathan is allergic)*P(test predicts it correct)

= 0.75(0.98)

=0.245

Eric sells shirts. It costs him $100 to buy all the shirts and $10, total, to print designs on them. Eric sells each shirt for $4. So far he has sold 20 shirts. He uses the equation y = 4x - 110 to calculate his profit. What is the constant in Eric’s equation?
A) 4
B) -10
C) 20
D) -110

Answers

C) 20 is the constant. He can plug in the 20 into the value of x (shirts sold) to solve for y (profit).

If Jimmy has 530 pieces of paper and Kit comes along and gives him 18 times as much, how many pieces of paper Jimmy have? And if Kit takes 23 pieces away how much does Jimmy have now?

Answers

Answer:

10,070 and 10,047 pieces respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we have 2 questions to answer.

Firstly, we are told that Jimmy has 530 pieces of paper and kit comes along to give him 18 times as much, we need to know how much he has now.

Since he was given 18 times as much, the amount given would be 18 * 530 = 9,540

The amount he has now would be 9,540 + 530 = 10,070 paper pieces

Secondly, Kim comes along to take 23 pieces away, we need to know how much pieces he has now. What to do is simply to

Subtract 23 from the previous pieces = 10,070 - 23 = 10,047 pieces of paper

Brandon uses the steps below to solve the equation 15x+6=14x+5 using algebra tiles. Step 1 Add 14 negative x-tiles to both sides. Step 2 Add 5 negative unit tiles to both sides Step 3 The solution is x=1 Which explains whether Brandon is correct?

Answers

Answer:

No he was not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The Equation is 15 x + 6 = 14 x + 5

now By the steps brandon used let us solve the question

Step 1 : Add 14 negative x tile to both sides

which will make the equation

15x + 6 - 14x = 14x + 5 - 14 x

x + 6 = 5  .......(ii)

Step 2: Add 5 negative unit tiles to both sides of equation (ii)

which will make the equation

x +6 - 5 = 5 - 5

x + 1 = 0  .........(iii)

Step 3: x =1 is the answer

but from equation (iii) we see that

x + 1 =0

by adding -1 on both sides

x + 1 -1 = 0-1

x = -1

So the step three done by Brandon is wrong which explains he was not correct

Answer:

D.) Brandon is not correct because he should have added 6 negative unit tiles to isolate the variable in step 2.

B) $78.00
C) $80.00
D) $90.00

Answers

The money has been in the account for 5 years. This means that the amount of deposit was increased for 5 times. 
75*1.04*1.04*1.04*1.04
*1.04=75*1.04^5≈91.3 $
In this way i prefer to chose D) $90.00 beacuse it's the nearest number
