13 percent of a certain company's life insurance policy holders are smokers. For each nonsmoker the probability of dying during

the year is 0.002. For each smoker the probability of dying during the year is 0.02. Find the probability that a policy holder who died last year was a smoker.

Answer:

.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Bayes' theorem

While s = smoker

n = nonsmoker

D = died

P(s) = .13

P(n) =.87

P(D/s) =0.02

P(D/n) =0.002

P(s/D) = ??

P(s/D)=\frac{P(s)*P(D/s)}{P(s)*P(D/s)+P(n) *P(D/n)} =\frac{.13*.02}{.13*.02+.87*.002}=.6

Find the equation of the line through point (5,1) and perpendicular to 5x−y=−3. Use a forward slash (i.e. "/") for fractions (e.
IRINA_888 [86]
Y = -1/5x + 2

A line perpendicular to another line has an opposite reciprocal slope. What opposite means is that you flip the sign (from - to + or from + to -) and reciprocal means that you flip the numerator and denominator (so if line A is perpendicular to line B and line As slope is -3, line Bs slope would be 1/3).

First find the slope of 5x - y = -3
Add y to both sides
5x = y - 3
Add 3 to both sides
y = 5x + 3

So the slope of the line is 5. That means the slope of of the perpendicular line is -1/5.

Plug the slope of the perpendicular line and the point (5, 1) into point slope form to solve the equation

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 1 = -1/5(x - 5)
y - 1 = -1/5x + 1
y = -1/5x + 2
