        A survey was done among people aged 65 years or older.It was 
 found that they had a 30% of suffering from stroke.If they suffered 
 from stroke,then their chances of developing cardiovascular 
 complications were 70%.However,if they did not suffer fromj stroke 
 then they had a 25% chance of developing cardiovascular complications. 
 Find the probability of: 
 I)Experiencing one of the stated health problems. 
 ii)Experiencing at least one of the stated health problems. 
 b)A tire manufacturer designed a new ambulance tread pattern for its 
 all-weather tires.Repeated tests were conducted on ambulances of 
 approximately the same weight travelling at 60 kilometres per hour.The 
 tests showed that the new tread pattern enables the ambulances to stop 
 completely in an average distance of 125 metres with a standard 
 deviation of 6.5 meters and that the stopping distances are 
 approximately normally distributed. 
 I)What is the 70th percentile of the distribution of stopping distances? 
 ii)What is the probability that at least 2 ambulances out of 5 
 randomly selected cars in the study will stop in a distance that is 
 greater than the distance calculated in part(I) above? 
 iii)What is the probability that a randomly selected sample of 5 
 ambulances in the study will have a mean stopping distance of at least 
 130 feet?

We won't do your homework questions for you. 
You were given the assignment for you to learn.
 
If you come up with your own answer and post it for us to critique that is within reason.
 
If you have some SPECIFIC questions that you couldn't find or didn't understand, we may help with that.

 were found to be 40 and 15 respectively.Later on,it was discovered 
 that the scores 43 and 35 were misread as 34 and 53 respectively.Find
