Let's put this rules in practice: a. In a survey of hospital nursing from a Washington state hospital it was found that 92% of the nurses were female, that 74% had received their nursing degree in Washington state, and 70% were both female and had received their nursing degree in Washington state. (Smith, 2007). If a nurse is chosen at random from those sampled, find the probability of the following events. • Getting a nurse w did not receive their nursing degree in Washington state • Getting a nurse who is a female and received their nursing degree in Washington state. Getting a nurse who is a female or received their nursing degree in Washington state.

3. A recent study concerning knee injuries of football players compared two types of football shoes. Out of a randomly chosen group of 1440 players, 240 used multicleated shoes and 200 used more conventional football shoes. All played on natural grass. Of those using the multicleated shoes, 13 suffered knee injuries. Of those using conventional shoes, 78 suffered knee injuries. (a) Test the hypothesis that the probability of a knee injury is the same for both groups of players. Use the 5 percent level of significance. (b) Are the given data strong enough to establish that the multicleated shoes are superior to the conventional ones in terms of reducing the probability of a knee injury? (c) In part (b), at what levels of significance would the evidence be strong enough?

The patients were grouped in 4 categories: one for each drug, and a control group. The patients in the control group were not given any drug to treat the disease. The following table shows the results of the study: Suppose we randomly select a patient from this study, 1. If you know that the patient we selected was cured in less than three months, what is the probability that she was treated with drug 1? 2. What is the probability that the patient was treated with any of the drugs and was cured between 6 and 12 months from the start of the treatment?
