Suppose john has a torn tendon and is facing surgery to repair it. the surgeon explains the risks to john: infection occurs in 2% of operations, the repair fails in 12% of operations, and both infection and failure occur together in 1.12% of operations. what percentage, p, of these operations succeed and are free from infection? round your answer to the nearest two decimal places.

answer:

67%

step-by-step explanation:

well my understanding of this question is they want you to use the y=14.1x -2.3 and put the coordinates they gave you onto the line segment of   y=14.1x -2.3

step-by-step explanation:

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
