4. A large corporation organised a ballot for all its workers on a new pension scheme. It was found that 60% of all night-shift workers favoured the plan and that 35% of all female workers favoured the plan. Also, 45% of all employees are night-shift workers, and 25% of all employees are women. Finally, 15% of night-shift workers are women. (a) What is the probability that a randomly selected employee is a woman in favour of the scheme? (b) What is the probability that a randomly chosen employee is either a woman or a night-shift worker or both? 2 (c) What is the probability that a female employee is a night-shift worker? (d) If 60% of all male employees favoured the scheme, what is the probability that a randomly chosen employee both does not work night-shifts and does not favour the scheme?
