We know the following about a colormetric method used to test lake water for nitrates. If water specimens contain nitrates, a solution dropped into the water will cause the specimen to turn red 95% of the time. When used on water specimens without nitrates, the solution causes the water to turn red 10% of the time (because chemicals other than nitrates are sometimes present and they also react to the agent). Past experience in a lab indicates that nitrates are contained in 30% of the water specimens that are sent to the lab for testing. 1. If a water specimen is randomly selected from among those sent to the lab, what is the probability that it will turn red when tested?2. If a water sample is randomly selected and turns red when tested, what is the probability that it actually contains nitrates?a) 0.80b) 0.95c) 0.30d) 0.38

Which of these statements is correct? the system of linear equations 6x - 5y = 8 and 12x - 10y = 16 has no solution. the system of linear equations 7x + 2y = 6 and 14x + 4y = 16 has an infinite number of solutions. the system of linear equations 8x - 3y = 10 and 16x - 6y = 22 has no solution. the system of linear equations 9x + 6y = 14 and 18x + 12y = 26 has an infinite number of solutions.
