Use these similar triangles on the coordinate plane to determine the equation of a straight line with a slope of 5/3 that passes through the origin.
y = five-thirds x
y = three-fifths x
y = 3x + 5
y = 5x + 3

Suppose that 3% of all athletes are using the endurance-enhancing hormone epo (you should be able to simply compute the percentage of all athletes that are not using epo). for our purposes, a “positive” test result is one that indicates presence of epo in an athlete’s bloodstream. the probability of a positive result, given the presence of epo is .99. the probability of a negative result, when epo is not present, is .90. what is the probability that a randomly selected athlete tests positive for epo? 0.0297
