health study concluded that following 7 simple health rules can extend a human’s life by 7-11 years on the average. These 7 rules are as follows: no smoking, get regular exercise, use alcohol only in moderation, get 7 to 8 hours of sleep, maintain proper weight, eat breakfast, and do not eat between meals. In how many ways can a person adopt 5 of these rules, a. If the person presently violates all 7 rules? b. If the person never drinks and always eats breakfast?

3. Find the concentration of polychlorinated biphenyls in drinking water that would result in a 10-6 risk for a 70-kg person who drinks 2L/day throughout his or her entire lifetime.
Suppose that sodium pentobarbital is used to anesthetize a dog. The dog is anesthetized when its bloodstream contains at least 45 milligrams (mg) of sodium pentobarbital per kilogram of the dog’s body weight. Suppose also that sodium pentobarbital (with a half-life of 5 h) is eliminated exponentially from the dog’s bloodstream. What single dose should be administered in order to anesthetize a 50-kg for 1 h?
A water system is subjected to disinfection. Total applied chlorine is 12 mg/1. At break point, chlorine dose and residual chlorine are 8 mg/l and 2 mg/1 respectively. Calculate residual chlorine corresponding to total applied chlorine:
When drinking water is disinfected with chlorine an undesired byproduct, chloroform, is formed. Suppose a 70-kg person drinks 2 L of water every day for 70 years with a chloroform concentration of 0.1 mg/L What is the average life-time daily dose? 0.17 ug/kg•day 2.9 ug/kg•day 0.1 mg/L 0.2 mg/L•day
Helen knows that anemic causes yellow skin 53% of the time. Prior probability of any patient that is anemic is 1/60,000. Prior to probability of any patient that have yellow skin is 1/25. If a patient has yellow skin, what is the probability that he or she is anemic?

Civil Engineering A woman weighing 78 kg drinks 2 liters per day of water that contains 5 mg/L of Contaminant X. If she drinks this water for 70 years and the cancer slope factor of Contaminant X is 0.67 kg-day/mg, determine the cancer risk from this exposure.
When drinking water is disinfected with chlorine, an undesired byproduct, chloroform (CHCl3), may form. Suppose a 70-kg person drinks 2 L of water every day for 70 years with a chloroform concentration of 0.08 mg/L (the drinking water standard). Potency factor for chloroform = 6.1 x 10-3 (mg/kg-day)-1 The upper-bound cancer risk for this individual. a. 0.545 b. 5.45x10-6 c. 5.45x10-4 d. 5.45x10-10 e. 14x10-6
Joey says he is itchy. There is a test for allergy to cats, but this test is not alwaysr ight. For people that really do have the allergy, the test says yes 85% of the time. For people that do not have the allergy, the test says yes 15% of the time. If 1% of the population have the allergy and Joey's test says yes, what are the chances that hunter really has the allergy?
5. USEPA sets standards for arsenic emission from foundry so that the unit cancer risk is 0.015 (per ug/m3 of arsenic in the atmosphere over a lifetime period). Assuming the exposure to arsenic is 25 years, what should be the maximum concentration of arsenic in ambient air in a way that the real risk of getting cancer during these 25 years is 0.0001 (one chance in ten thousand)?
1. Out of 300 workers in a plant manufacturing Gen-X, 23 developed liver cancer. A control group consisting of individuals with smoking histories similar to the plant workers, and who were unlikely to have encountered Gen-X, had 35 with liver cancers and 510 who did not develop liver cancer. What is relative risk, attributable risk, and odd ratio? 2 The
