By examining the chest X-ray, the probability that a person is diagonased with TB when he is actually suffering from it, is 0.99. The probability that the doctor incorrectlydiagnoses aperson to be having TB, on the basis of X-ray reports is 0.001. In a certain city , 1 in 1000 persons suffers from TB. A person is selected at random and is diagoanl to have TB. What is the chance that he actually has TB?

Answer»

Solution :LET E= event that the DOCTOR diagonoses TB,
`E_1` =event that the person selected is SUFFERING from TB, and
`E_2` =event that the person selected is not suffering from TB.
Then , `P(E_1)=1/1000andP(E_2)=(1-1/1000)=999/1000`.
`P(E//E-1)`= probability that TB is diagnosed, when the person actually has TB
`=99/100`
`P(E//E-2)`= probability that TB is diagnosed, when the person has no TB
`=1/1000`
Using Bayes's theorem, we have
`P(E_1//E)`= probability of a person actually having TB, if it is knows that he is diagonal to have TB
`(P(E//E_1) .P(E_1))/(P(E//E_1).P(E_1)+P(E//E_2).P(E_2))`
`=((99/100xx1/1000))/((99/100xx1/1000)+(1/1000xx999/1000))=110/221`.
Hence, the REQUIRED probability is `110/221`.

Which of the following graphs represents the soution set for 5x - 10y gt 6 ?

Answer»




Solution :Rewrite the inequalityin slope-intercept from and then IDENTIFY which half-should be shaded. Substract 5x from both sides of the inequality, divide both sides by `-10,` and flip the inequality symbol to yield `y lt 1/2 x -3/5.` Eliminate (A) and (D)because they have positive y-intercepts. The "less than" symbol INDICATES that the half-plane below the LINE should be shade3d, making (C ) is CORRECT ANSWER.

Find the area of the region {(x,y): x^2 +y^2 le 2ax , y^2 le ax , x le 0 , y le 0 }

Answer»

Solution :Clearly we have to find the area of the region lying in the first quadrant `(x ge 0, y ge 0 )` included between the CIRCLE `x^(2)+y^(2)=2ax` and the PARABOLA `y^2 =ax`
Thus , the equations of the given curves are
`x^2+y^2 =2ax…(i)`
and`y^2 =ax` ...(II)
Now , clearly `x^2+y^2=2ax ` is a circle with its CENTER `B(a,0)` and radius `=a` units
And `y^2=ax ` is parabola with `O(0,0)` as its vertexand the x-axis as its axis. We can draw its figure as shown .
Their points of intersection may be obtained by solving `(i)` and `(ii)` and keeping in view that `x ge 0 and y gt 0`
Using `(ii)` in `(i)` ,we get
`x^2-ax =0 rArr x(x -a) =0`
`rArr x=0 or x =a`
Now `(x=0 rArr y=0 )` and `(x=a rArr y=a)`
Thus, two curves intesect at O(0,0) and A(a,a)
`therefore" required area " =UNDERSET(0)overset(a)int sqrt(2ax -x^2)dx - underset(0)overset(a)int sqrt(ax)dx`
`=underset(0)overset(a)intsqrt(a^2-(x-a)^2)dx -sqrt(a).underset(0)overset(a)int sqrt(x)dx `
`=[((x-a)sqrt(a^2-(x-a)^2))/(2)+a^2/2 sin^(-1)""((x-a)/a)]_0^a-sqrt(a)[2/3x^(3//2)]_0^a`
`={a^2/2sin^(-1)(0)-a^2/2 sin^(-1)(-1)-2/3a^2}`
`=((pia^2)/4-2/3a^2)`sq units
Hence, the required area is `=((pia^2)/4-2/3a^2)` sq units .

Integrate the following functions: 1/(sinx cos^3x)

Answer»

Solution :`1/(sinx cos^3x) = COSX/(sinx cos^4x) = sec^4x/tanx`
=`(sec^2x(1+tan^2x))/tanx`
Put tan X =t. Then dt = `sec^2x dx` ,
therefore` int dx/(sinx cos^3x) = int(1+t^2)/t dt`
=`int(1/t+t)dt = log|t|+t^2/2+c`
`log|tanx|+tan^2x/2+c`
