Fernando et al. (A-3) studied drug sharing among injection drug users in the South Bronx in New York City. Drug users in New York City use the term “split a bag" or "get down on a bag" to refer to the practice of dividing a bag of heroin or other injectable substances. A common practice includes splitting drugs after they are dissolved in a common cooker 3.4.2 LEE CLARK 3.5 Bayes' Theorem, Screening Tests, Sensitivity, Specificity, and Predictive Value Positive and Negative a procedure with considerable HIV risk. Although this practice is common, little is known about the prevalence of such practices. The researchers asked injection drug users in four neighborhoods in the South Bronx if they ever "got down on" drugs in bags or shots. The results classified by gender and splitting practice are given below: 66 Never Split Drugs Gender Split Drugs Total MOITIMINg 324 673 349 Male 128 348 Female 220 452 1021 Total 569 gen selet A Source: Daniel Fernando, Robert F.

State each in probability notation and do the calculations. (c) How many conditional probabilities can be calculated? State each in probability nota- tion and do the calculations. (d) Use the multiplication rule to find the probability that a person picked at random never split drugs and is female. (e) What do we call the probability calculated in part d? (f) Use the multiplication rule to find the probability that a person picked at random is male, given that he admits to splitting drugs. (g) What do we call the probability calculated in part f?
Transformation of Graphs
The word ‘transformation’ means modification. Transformation of the graph of a function is a process by which we modify or change the original graph and make a new graph.
Exponential Functions
The exponential function is a type of mathematical function which is used in real-world contexts. It helps to find out the exponential decay model or exponential growth model, in mathematical models. In this topic, we will understand descriptive rules, concepts, structures, graphs, interpreter series, work formulas, and examples of functions involving exponents.
