Question

Could you help me on question e and f, please 3. The table below lists accidental deaths in the U.S. during a specific year by age and type 0l accident. Type of Accident Motor Total Fall DrowningOther 4.201 Age Vehicle 11.000 38,184 17,965 18,389 15,223 1.770 Under 15 Tsto 34 35 to 55 to 4.707 24,538 8.342 6,7343.337 2,717 47.038 322 889 690 197 6.827 7,138 7.628 4.186 32,760 8.123 over 100,761 Total a. (5 pt) Determine the probability that a randomly selected person from this population (i.e., who suffered an accidental death in the U.S. in the specific year) died due to a motor vehicle accident. b. (5 pt) Determine the probability that a randomly selected person from this population was 55 years old or older. 18389 + 15223T o 33 5 c. (5 pt) Ifa person randomly selected from this population died as the result of a drowning, determine the probability that this person was 75 or more years old 19 6822o. o d. (10 pt) Determine the probability that a randomly selected person from this population died from a motor vehicle accident given that the person was between 15 and 34 years old. e. (10 pt) Determine the probability was between 55 and 74 years old or died from a fall or drownin that a randomly selected person from this population 14 13s )0.1544 f. (10 pt) According to this data, is dying in a motor vehicle accident independent of age? Justify your answer. oe nat iade and thoe i an infevsa

Explanation / Answer

e) probability =P(A U B UC) =P(A)+P(B)+P(C)-P(A n B)-P(A n C)

=(18389+14136+6827-3337-690)/100761=0.3506

f) here in part C )

P(motor vehilce|15 to 34 year) =0.6426

while P(motor vehicle) =47038/100761=0.4668

as P(motor vehilce|15 to 34 year) is not equal to P(motor vehicle) ; therefore age and dying from motor cycle are not independent.
