If one of the 1008 subjects is randomly selected, find the probability that the person chosen is a woman given that the person is a light smoker. Round to the nearest thousandth.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The probability is 0.4841.

Step-by-step explanation:

The provided table is:

From above table, it is known that

Number of subjects are 1008.

The probability that the person chosen is a woman given that the person is a light smoker can be calculated as:

[tex]P(Woman| Light smoker)=\frac{P(Woman and light smoker)}{P(Light smoker)} \\P(Woman| Light smoker)= \frac{\frac{76}{1008} }{\frac{157}{1008} } = 0.4841[/tex]

Thus, required probability is 0.4841.
