Based on data from a statistical abstract, only about 11% of senior citizens (65 years old or older) get the flu each year. However, about 23% of the people under 65 years old get the flu each year. In the general population, there are 11.5% senior citizens (65 years old or older). (Round your answers to three decimal places.) (a) What is the probability that a person selected at random from the general population is senior citizen who will get the flu this season?(b) What is the probability that a person selected at random from the general population is a person under age 65 who will get the flu this year?(c) Repeat parts (a) and (b) for a community that has 91% senior citizens. (a)   (b)   (d) Repeat parts (a) and (b) for a community that has 48% senior citizens. (a)   (b)
