Suppose 50% of the people in a particular population have high blood pressure. Of the people with high blood pressure, suppose 75% smoke; whereas, only 50% of the people without high blood pressure actually smoke. What percent of people who smoke have high blood pressure

37.50%

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the percentage of people who smoke have high blood pressure is shown below:

Given that

There is 50% of the people who has the high blood pressure

And, out of which 75% would smoke

So, the percent of the people who smoke have high high blood pressure is

= 50% × 0.75

= 37.50%

step-by-step explanation:

m∠cdf = 43° , m∠gdf = 114°, m∠gde = 23°, m∠edh = 23° , m∠cdh = 157°

step-by-step explanation:

since, it is given that de bisects the angle gdh ⇒ de divides the angle gdh into two equal angles.

⇒ m∠gde = m∠edh

⇒ 8·x   - 1 = 6·x + 5

⇒ x = 3

so, m∠gde = 8·x - 1 = 23°

and m∠edh = 23°

now, it is given ∠cde is an straight angle so, m∠cde = 180°

⇒ m∠cdf + m∠fdg + m∠gde = 180°

⇒ 43° + m∠fdg + 23° = 180°

⇒ m∠fdg = 114°

again, m∠cde = m∠cdh + m∠edh = 180°

m∠cdh + 23° = 180°

⇒ m∠cdh = 157°
