<span>Find the odds of a man with high blood pressure dying from cardiovascular disease. 55 p .0165 3338 = p .0165 .0165 .0168 1 p 1 .0165 .9835

Do the same for a man with low blood pressure. 21 p .0079 2676 = = p .0079 .0079 .00796 1 p 1 .0079 .9921 = = = − − ----->

Calculate the odds ratio with the odds for the high blood pressure group in the numerator. Describe the result in words. HBP LBP odds .0168 odds ratio 2.11 odds .00796 = = = Men with high blood pressure are 2.11 times more likely to die from cardiovascular disease.</span>

There are two boxes containing only black and orange pens.
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Event 3 -> Event 1 -> Event 4 -> Event 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of choosing a certain pen is the number of that pen in the box over the total number of pens in the box.

So we have that:

Event 1: We have 4 black pen and 20 total pens, so P = 4 / 20 = 1 / 5

Event 2: All pens are black or orange so the probability is 1.

Event 3: We don't have white pens, so the probability is 0.

Event 4: We have 2 black pen and 5 total pens, so P = 2 / 5

Listing from least likely to most likely, we have:

Event 3 -> Event 1 -> Event 4 -> Event 2

Find the value of x. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. tan 12 degrees= ten over (x)
Lorico [155]
Tan(12)=-0.6358599287. That means -0.6358599287 = 10/x so you can swap the x to the other side to make x = 10/-0.6358599287 Which equals -15.7 rounded to the nearest tenth.

Sam is practicing long track speed skating at an ice skating rink The distance around the rink and 250 yards has skated around t
Vladimir [108]
There are 1760 yards in one mile and the rink is 250 yard in perimeter.

This means 3 miles is 5280 yards. 
 
If Sam has already gone around the whole rink 6 times, that means he was traveled a total of 1500 yards.  

Sam has 3780 more yards to travel 3 miles.

This means he needs to do 15.12 more laps around the rink.  Or 16 if you are rounding.

Hope this helps! :)
