A historian examining British colonial records for the Gold Coast in Africa suspects that the death rate was higher among African miners than among European miners. In the year 1936, there were 245 deaths among 34002 African miners and 7 deaths among 1503 European miners on the Gold Coast. Consider this year as a sample from the pre-war era in Africa. Is there good evidence that the proportion of African miners who died was higher than the proportion of European miners who died? Follow the Inference Toolbox. (Use a =.05.) Z= 1.13 P-value - 0.13 Conclusion O There is significant evidence that the proportion of African miners who died is higher than the proportion of European miners who died. There is no evidence that the proportion of African miners who died is higher than the proportion of European miners who died.
Compound Probability
Compound probability can be defined as the probability of the two events which are independent. It can be defined as the multiplication of the probability of two events that are not dependent.

Probability theory is a branch of mathematics that deals with the subject of probability. Although there are many different concepts of probability, probability theory expresses the definition mathematically through a series of axioms. Usually, these axioms express probability in terms of a probability space, which assigns a measure with values ranging from 0 to 1 to a set of outcomes known as the sample space. An event is a subset of these outcomes that is described.
Conditional Probability
By definition, the term probability is expressed as a part of mathematics where the chance of an event that may either occur or not is evaluated and expressed in numerical terms. The range of the value within which probability can be expressed is between 0 and 1. The higher the chance of an event occurring, the closer is its value to be 1. If the probability of an event is 1, it means that the event will happen under all considered circumstances. Similarly, if the probability is exactly 0, then no matter the situation, the event will never occur.
![rises and falls with the abundance of acoms, their favored food. Experimenters studied two similar forest areas in a year when the acorn crop failed. They added hundreds of thousands of acorns to one
area to imitate an abundant acorn crop, while leaving the other area untouched. The next spring. 58 of the 75 mice trapped in the first area were in breeding condition, versus 10 of the 17 mice trapped

A sample survey by Nielsen Media Research looked at computer access and use of the Internet. Whites were significantly more likely than blacks to own a home computer, but the black-white difference
in computer access at work was not significant. The study team then looked separately at the households with at least $40,000 income. The sample contained 1931 white and 121 black households in
this class. Here are the sample counts for these households.
