In a population of 10,000, there are 5000 nonsmokers, 2500 smokers of one pack or less per day, and 2500 smokers of more than one pack per day. During any month,there is an 8% probability that a nonsmoker will begin smoking a pack or less per day, and a 3% probability that a nonsmoker will begin smoking more than a pack per day.For smokers who smoke a pack or less per day, there is a 10% probability of quitting and a 10% probability of increasing to more than a pack per day. For smokers whosmoke more than a pack per day, there is a 9% probability of quitting and a 10% probability of dropping to a pack or less per day.

At a bar, 30% of those in attendance are football fans, 50% in attendance are soccer fans, and 20% in attendance are hockey fans. You may assume these sports fandoms are mutually exclusive. The probability that a football fan is wearing a red shirt is 15%. The probability that a soccer fan is wearing a red shirt is 45% and the probability that a hockey fan is wearing a red shirt is 85%. You have just talked to a randomly selected person who was wearing a red shirt, but forgot to ask them their preferred sport. What is the probability that they are a soccer fan? What is the probability that a randomly selected bar patron is a soccer fan AND they are wearing red? What is the probability that a randomly selected part goer is a soccer fan OR they are wearing red?
Suppose a free throw shooter makes 67 percent of their first attempts. On the second attempt they make 81 percent if they had made their first attempt, but 59 percent if they had miss. What is the probability that they make one of two attempts (one or the other attempt, but not both)?
If a seed is planted, it has a 95% chance of growing into a healthy plant.If eleven seeds are planted, what is the probability that exactly three don't grow?
If a seed is planted, it has an 80% chance of growing into a healthy plant. If 12 seeds are planted, what is the probability that exactly 1 doesn’t grow?
A study tracked a large group of people for 10 years. At the start of the study, 20% were heavy smokers (H), 30% were light smokers (L), and 50% were non-smokers (N). The interest of the study was whether the people in the study died during the study (D) or not die (Dc ). The probability that a light smoker died during the study was twice that of the probability of a non-smoker dying. Also, the probability that light smoker died during the study was half that of the probability of a heavy smoker dying. A randomly selected person from the study died during the study. What is the probability that this person was a heavy smoker (given they died, what is the probability they were a heavy smoker H)?
If a seed is planted, it has a 65% chance of growing into a healthy plant. If 10 seeds are planted, what is the probability that exactly 1 doesn't grow?
You are interested in the number of people that will visit your restaurant in the noon hour. Historically, there is a 10% chance that more than 10 customers will visit, a 30% chance that more than 8 customers will visit, a 50% chance that more than 6 customers will visit, a 80% chance that more than 4 customers will visit, and a 95% chance that at least 2 customers will visit during the noon hour. What is the probability that 4 or less customers will visit the restaurant -- the number required to break even financially for the day?Express your answer as a percent value. So if your answer is 100% for example, enter 100. Round your answer to the nearest percent.
