Answer:

4.11% probability that he has lung disease given that he does not smoke

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Does not smoke

Event B: Lung disease

Lung Disease/Nonsmoker 0.03

This means that P(A \cap B) = 0.03

Lung Disease/Nonsmoker 0.03

No Lung Disease/Nonsmoker 0.7

This means that P(A) = 0.03 + 0.7 = 0.73

What is the probability of the following event: He has lung disease given that he does not smoke?

P(B|A) = \frac{0.03}{0.73} = 0.0411

4.11% probability that he has lung disease given that he does not smoke

kkurt [141]
225*(x+1/25)+225*(y-4/9)=225*1
9(x+1)+25(y-4)=225
9x+9+25y-100=225
9x-91+25y=225
9x=225+91-25y
9x=316-25y

What is the volume of this rectangular prism?
Natalija [7]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of a rectangular prism, multiply its 3 dimensions: length x width x height. The volume is expressed in cubic units.

The given rectangular prism has sides that have values of 3/2 (Decimal: 1.5), 4, and 1/2 (Decimal: 0.5).

So using the formula:

L × W × H

We can calculate:

V=whl=4·1.5·0.5=3

Find the radius of a circle with a circumference of 30 units. Round your answer to the nearest tenth (1 decimal place).
Vlad [161]

Answer:

The radius would be 4.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumerfence of a circle can be found use the equation C=2\pir. So since we are given the circumerce we need to rearrange the eqaution to it looks like \frac{30}{2\pi }=r. when we do this out we find that the radius equals 4.8.

Find the values of x and y. PLEASEEE QILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
agasfer [191]

As parallel sides

\\ \rm\longmapsto 2x+90=180

\\ \rm\longmapsto 2x=90

\\ \rm\longmapsto x=90/2=45

Now

\\ \rm\longmapsto 2x+3y+6y+90=360

\\ \rm\longmapsto 9y+180=360

\\ \rm\longmapsto 9y=180

\\ \rm\longmapsto y=20

What is Y-3x=-2 and Y+x=-6
love history [14]
Rearranging the first equation gives:

y=3x-2

Substituting this into the other equation gives:

y+x=-6
\\(3x-2)+x=-6
\\4x-2=-6
\\4x=-4 \\x=-1

If x=-1:

y+(-1)=-6
\\y=-5

So x=-1, y=-5
