Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So you start with 5.7 miles which is the first ride and the long ride is 5 2/3 times longer so you multiply 5.7 by 5 2/3. 5.7 is equivalent to 5 7/10 so you multiply 5 7/10 by 5 2/3. If we get common denominators we will end up with 5 21/30 and 5 20/30 then you multiply. You will get 32.3: 32.3 is equivalent to 32 and 3/10. Then you add that to 5 and 7/10. You will get 38.

Answer: 38

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

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

$P(B) = 0.6$
