Answer: 0.421
Step-by-step explanation:
Heavy smoker = 20%
Light smoker = 30%
Non smokers = 50%
We can assume that the probability that a non-smoker is going to die in the next 5 years be y.
Since light smokers were twice as likely as nonsmokers to die during the five-year study, the probability will be:
= 2 × y = 2y
Probability for the Heavy smokers will be:= 2 × 2y = 4y
The expected number of people that will die for each in the next 5 years will be:
Non smoker:
= 50% × y
= 0.5 × y
= 0.5y
Light smoker:
= 30% × 2y
= 0.3 × 2y.
= 0.6y
Heavy smoker:
= 20% × 4y.
= 0.2 × 4y
= 0.8y
Total = 0.5y + 0.6y + 0.8y = 1.9y
The probability that the participant was a heavy smoker will be:
= 0.8y/1.9y
= 0.421

Answer:
3/4 lbs more
Step-by-step explanation:
1 1/2 - 3/4 = 3/4
You need 3/4 lbs more coffee to have 1 1/2 lbs
Answer:
t=x+44
Step-by-step explanation:
the x ounces are being added to the vase's pre-existing 44 ounces so therefore the equation is t=x+44
