What is the probability that a person who is alive at age 50 will live 80 more years a. if the person is a male? b. if the person is a female? (Assume that none of the persons in Table 11.4 attained 130 years of age.)

Parth (parthkohli):

I assume that you are asking about 'experimental probability'.

Parth (parthkohli):

50 + 80 = 130 So, it's 0.

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

no

Parth (parthkohli):

Since none of them have attained 130

Parth (parthkohli):

@UnkleRhaukus ?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

the person is alive,

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

you havent got data on there death

Parth (parthkohli):

But none has/have attained 130 years, so the probability is zero.

OpenStudy (ash2326):

@andalusian66 Please post the relevant data

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

assume normal distribution

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first time I have used this site still figuring it out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it must be 0

Parth (parthkohli):

Yes.

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

hmm
