The Transportation Safety Authority (TSA) has developed a new test to detect large amounts of liquid in luggage bags. Based on many test runs, the TSA determines that if a bag does contain large amounts of liquid, there is a probability of 0.96 the test will detect it. If a bag does not contain large amounts of liquid, there is a 0.06 probability the test will conclude that it does (a false positive). Suppose that in reality only 3 in 100 bags actually contain large amounts of liquid. Required:
a. What is the probability a randomly selected bag will have apositive test?
b. Given a randomly selected bag has a positive test, what is theprobability it actually contains a large amount of liquid?
c. Given a randomly selected bag has a positive test, what is theprobability it does not contain a large amount of liquid?

may i see the picture? it would a lot, xox

answer: a video game has three difficulty levels: easy, medium, and expert. the game's scoring works in such a way that a player has to score a fixed number of points to advance to the next level, and then the scoring starts over. the total score needed to clear all three difficulty levels is 7,500. two times the number of points needed to clear the easy level is 500 more than the number of points needed to clear the medium level. twice the number of points needed to clear the medium difficulty level is 1,500 more than the number of points needed to clear the expert level. if x, y, and z represent the easy, medium, and expert levels, respectively, and a is the coefficient matrix of the system of equations modeling this situation, identify the inverse matrix, a-1, and the solution matrix, x, of the system of equations.

step-by-step explanation:

the solution of the equation is 2.23 ⇒ answer b

step-by-step explanation:

* lets revise the meaning of exponential function

- the form of the exponential function is y = ab^x, where a ≠ 0, b > 0 ,  

  b ≠ 1, and x is any real number

- it has a constant base b

- it has a variable exponent x

- to solve an exponential equation, take the log or ln of both sides,  

  and solve for the variable

* lets solve the problem

∵

- the base is 7 and the exponent is x

- insert ㏑ in both sides

∴

- use the rule

∴ x ㏑(7) = ㏑(77)

- to find x divide both sides by ㏑(7)

∴

* the solution of the equation is 2.23 to the nearest 2 decimal places
