Suppose that we were going to conduct a study to determine if there is an increased risk of getting lung cancer based on whether

a person smokes or not. In the group of smokers(1) , we find that 10 out of 100 get lung cancer. In the non-smokers group(2), we find that 5 out of 200 get lung cancer. What is the sample relative risk?

Answer:

Sample relative risk is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Group 1 of smokers: 10 out of 100 get lung cancer.

\text{P(Lung cancer for smoker)} = \dfrac{10}{100} = \dfrac{1}{10}

Group 2 of non-smokers: 5 out of 200 get lung cancer

\text{P(Lung cancer for non-smoker)} = \dfrac{5}{200} = \dfrac{1}{40}

Sample relative risk:

  • It is the ratio of probability of an outcome in an exposed group to the probability of an outcome in an unexposed group.

Sample relative risk =

\dfrac{\text{P(lung cancer for smokers)}}{\text{P(lung cancer for non smokers)}}\\\\=\dfrac{\frac{1}{10}}{\frac{1}{40}} = \dfrac{40}{10} = 4

Thus, sample relative risk is 4.

Answer:

Sketch the graph of y=7^x

Reflect the graph across the y-axis to show the function y=7^-x

Stretch the graph vertically by a factor of 3 to show the function y= 3*7^-x

Shift the graph up 2 units to show the function y=3*7^-x+2

Frank purchased a new ice box having 2kg capacity. He wants it to be full with ice cubes. He measured the ice cubes to be 3.5 cm
salantis [7]

Answer:

Frank can put 5 cubes in the box.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:

Mass = Volume × density.

1 cubic centimetre = 0.001 liter= 1 millilitre

Given that,

Frank purchase a new ice box having 2 kg capacity.

So,the mass of the cubes is 2 kg.

Each ice cubes measured 3.5 cm by 3.5 cm by 3.5 cm.

The volume of a cube is = Side ^3

The volume of a each ice cubes is =3.5^3 cm³

                                                        = 42.875 ml

The ice cubes have a density of 0.914 g/ml

The mass of each cubes are

=volume of each ice cubes × density

=42.875 ml ×0.914 g/ml

=39.18775 gram.

Let x number of ice cubes he can put in the box.

The mass of x cubes is = 39.18775x grams.

2 kg= 2,000 gram [ since 1 kg= 1000 gram]

According to the problem,

39.18775x=2,000

\Rightarrow x=\frac{2000}{39.18775}

\Rightarrow x\approx 51

Frank can put 5 cubes in the box.
