A) In a recent year, 8,068,203 male students and 1,301,852 female students were enrolled as undergraduates. Receiving aid were 61.1% of the male students and 68% of the female students. Of those receiving aid, 42.9% of the males got federal aid and 52.6% of the females got federal aid. Choose 1 student at random. (Hint: Make a tree diagram.) Find the probability of selecting a student from the following. Carry your intermediate computations to at least 4 decimal places. Round the final answers to 3 decimal places. A female student with aid. P (female with aid)= B) Building a New Home In building new homes, a contractor finds that the probability of a home buyer selecting a two-car garage is 0.62 and of selecting a one-car garage is 0.24. Find the probability that the buyer will select no garage. The builder does not build houses with three-car or more garages. P (no garage)=
