HELLO I fixed it. I didn't see that table feature earlier. Sorry about that.

On my end it is correct but for some reason when I post it changes. Is there a way I can send your a print screen. I do not see a link for that feature here.

Question:

The table shows the leading causes of death in a certain country in a recent year. The population of the country was 314 million.   What is the empirical probability of death chronic respiratory diseases chronic respiratory diseases during a single year? How much greater is the risk of death by chronic respiratory diseases chronic respiratory diseases than death by kidney disease kidney disease?

Part 1 of 3

Part 2 of 3

The empirical probability of death by chronic respiratory diseases during a single year is? __________ (the number I have is: 596,600)
(Round to five decimal places as needed)

Part 3 of 3

The risk of death by chronic respiratory diseases is about? _______   times greater than risk by death of kidney disease. (the number I have is: 0.32050)
(Round to one decimal places as needed)

Cause Deaths Cause Deaths Heart Disease 596,900 Alzheimer's disease 84,800 Cancer 575,900 Diabetes 73,200 Chronic respiratory 143,600 Pneumonia/Influenza 53,600 Stroke 128,900 Kidney disease 46,600 Accidents 122,800 Suicide 38,700

Explanation / Answer

We want to find the empirical probability of death by chronic respiratory diseases during a single year

From the table we have death by chronic respiratory diseases = 143600

and total deaths = 1860000

so by using empirical rule we get required probability = 143600/1860000= 0.077204

After rounding the answer is 0.07720

deaths due to chronic respiratory diseases = 143600

and death due to  kidney disease = 46600

therefore t he risk of death by chronic respiratory diseases is 143600/46600 = 3.081545

After rounding we get the answer as 3.1

The risk of death by chronic respiratory diseases is about 3.1 times greater than risk by death of kidney disease.
