In a study by the Department of Transportation, there were a total of 89 drivers that were pulled over for speeding. Out of those 89 drivers, 36 were men who were ticketed, 15 were men who were not ticketed, 4 were women who were ticketed, and 34 were women who were not ticketed. Suppose one person was chosen at random. (a) What is the probability that the selected person is a man who was not ticketed? (b) What is the probability that the selected person is a man who was ticketed?
