Government data assign a single cause for each death that occurs in the United States. The data show that the probability is 0.27 that a randomly chosen death was due to heart disease, and is 0.23 that it was due to cancer. What is the probability that a death was due to either heart disease or cancer

0.50

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, we have the following data available:

Probability of randomly chosen death caused by a heart disease = 0.27

Probability of randomly chosen death caused by cancer = 0.23

We are to calculate the probability that the death was as a result of either cancer or heart disease.

P(cancer or heart disease)

= 0.27 + 0.23

= 0.50

Thank you!

geometric series converge the common ratio r has magnitude less than one.

which is equivalent to

for the example we need

|2-x| < 1

-1 < 2-x   and 2-x < 1

x < 3 and x > 1

we can write that

answer: 1 < x < 3

1a. common ratio r=250/25=10 > 1     diverges

1b.   r=50/100=1/2 converges

when these converge they converge to

where a is the first term.

answer: 200

1c. r=-1   so it's not the case that |r| < 1.     diverges

2a. x is the common ratio so we converge when |x|< 1

2b.   r=-10x / -2 = 5x.

we converge when

|5x| < 1

|x| < 1/5

2c.   r=3-2x

-1 < 3-2x and 3-2x < 1

-4 < -2x and 2 < 2x

x < 2 and 1 < x

1 < x < 2

2d. [/tex] r=-48x^3/12 = 4x^3[/tex]

|4x^3| < 1

|x^3| < \frac 1 4

|x| < 4^{-1/3}

3/6 chance

step-by-step explanation:

half of the nubers are odd numbers (1,3,5) which in that case if you would be told to simplify it would be 1/2
