Answer:
(i) 0.32 (ii) 0.85
(iii) 0.3412 (iv) 0.20
(v) 0.29 (vi) 0.12
Step-by-step explanation:
The data provided is as follows:
Race Smoker (S) Nonsmoker (N) Row Total
White(W) 290 560 850
Black(B) 30 120 150
Column Total 320 680 1,000
(i)
Compute the value of P (S) as follows:
[tex]P(S)=\frac{n(S)}{N}=\frac{320}{1000}=0.32[/tex]
P (S) = 0.32.
(ii)
Compute the value of P (W) as follows:
[tex]P(W)=\frac{n(W)}{T}=\frac{850}{1000}=0.85[/tex]
P (W) = 0.85.
(iii)
Compute the value of P (S|W) as follows:
[tex]P(S|W)=\frac{n(S\cap W)}{n(W)}=\frac{290}{850}=0.3412[/tex]
P (S|W) = 0.3412.
(iv)
Compute the value of P (S|B) as follows:
[tex]P(S|B)=\frac{n(S\cap B)}{n(B)}=\frac{30}{150}=0.20[/tex]
P (S|W) = 0.20.
(v)
Compute the value of P (S∩W) as follows:
[tex]P(S\cap W)=\frac{n(S\cap W)}{T}=\frac{290}{1000}=0.29[/tex]
P (S∩W) = 0.29.
(vi)
Compute the value of P (N∩B) as follows:
[tex]P(N\cap B)=\frac{n(N\cap B)}{T}=\frac{120}{1000}=0.12[/tex]
P (S∩W) = 0.12.
