Twenty-four students took a test. Fourteen students earned an A and 10 students earned a

1 answer:

8 0

Total number of students who did a test was 24
Number of students who scored an A is 14
Number of students who scored a B is 10
Probability that when we randomly select a student, he/she will have an A is:
(Number of students that scored A)/(Total number of students)
=14/24
=7/12
Therefore our answer is 7/12

The population of the country was 314 million. What is the empirical probability of death by stroke during a single year

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Empirical probability of deaths cause by stroke=0.004086

Empirical probability of deaths cause by kidney disease =0.001436

Death rate due to stroke is 4 times the death rate due to kidney disease.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the table attached in figure

No. of deaths cause by stroke = 128300

No. of deaths caused due t kidney disease = 45100

Total population = 314 x 10⁵

Formula to calculate empirical probability:

$P(A)=\frac{No.\, of\,\, times\,\, event\,\, occurs}{Total\,\, population}\\$

Empirical probability of deaths cause by stroke:

$P(A)=\frac{128300}{314\times 10^5}\\\\P(A)=0.004086$

Percentage of deaths cause by stroke =0.4%

Empirical probability of deaths cause by kidney disease:

$P(B)=\frac{45100}{314\times 10^5}\\\\P(B)=0.001436$

Percentage of deaths cause by kidney disease =0.1%

Ratio between deaths caused to stoke to deaths caused by kidney disease is 4:1 which means death rate due to stroke is 4 times the death rate due to kidney disease.
