Chapter 3: Q. 119 (page 231)

Given eventsGandH:P(G)=0.43;P(H)=0.26;P(HANDG)=0.14

a. Find localid="1649534354823" P(HORG).

b. Find the probability of the complement of event localid="1649534359655" (HANDG).

c. Find the probability of the complement of event localid="1649534364595" (HORG).

Short Answer

Expert verified

a. Probability of (HORG)islocalid="1649535670685" 0.55

b. Probability with complement of (HANDG)islocalid="1649535491485" 0.86.

c. Probability with complement of (HORG)islocalid="1649535679583" 0.45.

Step by step solution

01

Calculation forP(H or G) (part a)

a.

Probability of,

P(HORG)=P(H)+P(G)-P(HANDG)

=0.26+0.43-0.14

=0.69-0.14

role="math" localid="1649534782986" P(HORG)=0.55

02

Calculation forP(H AND G)'(part b)

b.

Probability of ,

P(HANDG)'=1-P(HANDG)

role="math" =1-0.14

=0.86

03

Calculation forP(H OR G)' (part c)

c.

Probability of,

P(HORG)'=1-P(HORG)

=1-0.55

=0.45

Use the following information to answer the next 12exercises. The graph shown is based on more than localid="1648902668215">170,000interviews done by Gallup that took place from January through December 2012. The sample consists of employed Americans 18years of age or older. The Emotional Health Index Scores are the sample space. We randomly sample one Emotional Health Index Score.

If we know an Emotional Health Index Score is 81.5 or more, what is the probability that it is 82.7.

Forty-eight percent of all Californians registered voters prefer life in prison without parole over the death penalty for a person convicted of first degree murder. Among Latino California registered voters, 55%prefer life in prison without parole over the death penalty for a person convicted of first degree murder. 37.6%of all Californians are Latino. In this problem, let: • C = Californians (registered voters) preferring life in prison without parole over the death penalty for a person convicted of first degree murder. L = Latino Californians. Suppose that one Californian is randomly selected.

In words, what is L AND C?
