A statistical investigation showed that adults in a particular country have an 80% chance of living to be at least 70 years old and a 50% chance of living to be at least 80 years old. What is the probability that an adult who just turned 70 will live to be 80?

Three students are arguing, Chad says, "I think the probability is 1 out of 2." Tien says, "No, it is 40 over 80." Falicia says, "It is 50%." What do you say to the students?

Normal distributions

asked 2021-03-11

Consider two independent populations that are normally distributions. A simple random sample of \(\displaystyle{n}_{{1}}={41}\) from the first population showed \(\displaystyle\overline{{x}}_{{11}}={33}\), and a simple random of size \(\displaystyle{n}_{{2}}={48}\) from the second population showed
\(\displaystyle\overline{{x}}_{{2}}={32}\)
Suppose \(\displaystyle{s}_{{1}}={9}{s}_{{1}}={9}{\quad\text{and}\quad}{s}_{{2}}={10}{s}_{{2}}={10}\), find a 98% confidence interval for \(\displaystyle\mu_{{1}}−\mu_{{2}}\mu_{{1}}-\mu_{{2}}\). (Round answers to two decimal places.)
margin of error-?

You ask a neighbor to water a sickly plant while you are on vacation. Without water the plant will die with probability 0.85. With water it will die with probability 0.5. You are 90 % certain the neighbor will remember to water the plant. You come back from the vacation and the plant is dead. What is the probability that the plant died because neighbor forgot to water it?

1950 randomly selected adults were asked if they think they are financially better off than their parents. The following table gives the two-way classification of the responses based on the education levels of the persons included in the survey and whether they are financially better off, the same as, or worse off than their parents
\(\begin{array}{|c|c|c|}\hline &\text{Less Than High School}&\text{High School}&\text{More Than High School}\\\hline \text{Better off} &140&440&430\\ \hline \text{Same as}&60&230&110\\ \hline \text{Worse off}&180&280&80\\ \hline\end{array}\\\)
Suppose one adult is selected at random from these 1950 adults. Find the following probablity.
Round your answer to three decimal places.
\(P(\text{more than high school or worse off})=?\)
