A study of consumer smoking habits includes 194194 people in the 18-22 age bracket (4848 of whom smoke), 142142 people in the 23-30 age bracket (3333 of whom smoke), and 8989 people in the 31-40 age bracket (2020 of whom smoke). If one person is randomly selected from this sample, find the probability of getting someone who is age 18-22 or does not smoke.

0.8753

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Population=194+142+89=425

Population of those who smoke=48+33+20=101

Population of non smokers=425-101=324

Population of those in 18-22 bracket=194

Population of nonsmoker's in 18-22 age bracket=194-48=146

Probability of getting someone who is age 18-22 =

Probability of getting someone who does not smoke =

Let the event that the person is in age bracket 18-22 be A

Let the event that the person does not smoke be B

Therefore, the probability of getting someone who is age 18-22 or does not smoke

=Probability of getting someone who is age 18-22 + Probability of getting someone who does not smoke - Probability of those who do not smoke and are in the age bracket 18-22

P(A or B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A and B)

=

42.4
