The Student's Conjecture: Summarize what you know about the student's conjecture. What is she trying to
determine? (1 point) Conjecture
She is trying to determine if smoking and lung cancer are conditional. Do they influence each other? The Data: Statistics about smoking and lung cancer for adults (age 18 and older) in the U.S:
Researchers estimate that 21.5% of men and 17% of women smoke cigarettes. 1
The rate of new cases in 2008 showed that men develop lung cancer more often than women (70.2 and 50.5
cases per 100,000 persons, respectively). 2
Smoking, a main cause of small cell and non–small cell lung cancer, correlates to 90% and 80% of lung
cancer deaths in men and women, respectively. 3 That is, 90% of men who are diagnosed with lung cancer
are active smokers, and 80% of women who are diagnosed with lung cancer are active smokers.
