<span>c. 4.6

21 X .22= 4.6

Calculating the variance requires finding the product of 21 and 22%. To make this easier we convert 22% into it's decimal form and construct the equation. To back check this answer we can use 10% of 21 voters which equals 2.1% then double that amount to reach 4.2%, knowing that we now have a close approximation of the variance we can eliminate answers a, b, and d, leaving c as the only logical choice.</span>

In a certain clinical study, 15% of participants were classified as heavy smokers, 25% as light-smokers, and the rest as non-smo

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

There is a 28.57% probability that a randomly selected participant who died by the end of the study was a non-smoker.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following probabilities:

A 15% probability that a participant is classified as a heavy smoker.

A 25% probability that a participant is classified as a light smoker.

A 100% - 25% - 15% = 60% probability that a participant is classified as a non smoker.

A x% probability that a non smoker dies.

A 3x% probability that a light smoker dies.

A 5x% probability that a heavy smoker dies.

This can be formulated as the following problem:

What is the probability of B happening, knowing that A has happened.

It can be calculated by the following formula

$P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)}$

Where P(B) is the probability of B happening, P(A/B) is the probability of A happening knowing that B happened and P(A) is the probability of A happening.

This problem is:

What is the probability of the participant being a non-smoker, given that he died?

P(B) is the probability that the participant is a non smoker. So

$P(B) = 0.6$

P(A/B) is the probability that the participant dies, given that he is a non smoker. So:

$P(A/B) = x$

P(A) is the probability that the participant dies:

$P(A) = P_{1} + P_{2} + P_{3}$

$P_{1}$ is the probability that a heavy smoker is selected and that he dies. So:

$P_{1} = 0.15*5x = 0.75x$

$P_{2}$ is the probability that a light smoker is selected and that he dies. So:

$P_{2} = 0.25*3x = 0.75x$

$P_{3}$ is the probability that a non-smoker is selected and that he dies. So:

$P_{3} = 0.60*x = 0.60x$

The probability that a participant dies is:

$P(A) = P_{1} + P_{2} + P_{3} = 0.75x + 0.75x + 0.60x = 2.10x$

The probability of the participant being a non-smoker, given that he died, is:

$P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.6x}{2.10x} = \frac{0.6}{2.10} = 0.2857$

There is a 28.57% probability that a randomly selected participant who died by the end of the study was a non-smoker.
