Suppose a recent government report indicates that 1% of the labor force is American Indian. Of the individuals in the labor force who are American Indian, 11% are unemployed. Among the individuals in the labor force who are not American Indian, 6% are unemployed. Let A be the event that a randomly selected member of the labor force is American Indian and let B be the event that a randomly selected member of the labor force is unemployed. Determine P(A | B), the probability that a randomly selected member of the labor force is American Indian given that he or she is unemployed. Express your answer as a percentage with no decimal places.

Suppose that 800 students were selected at random from a student body of 20,000 and given shots to prevent a certain type of flu. All 800 students were exposed to the flu, and 600 of them did not get the flu. Let p represent the probability that the shot will be successful for any single student selected at random from the entire population of 20,000. Let q be the probability that the shot is not successful. What is the point estimates for p and q? Would it seem that the number of trials is large enough to justify a normal approximation to the binomial? Compute the margin of error, E for a 99% confidence interval for p. Compute a 99% confidence interval for p. What does the confidence interval you just computed mean in the context of this application?
Suppose there is a 26.6% probability that a randomly selected person aged 20 years or older is a jogger. In addition, there is a 12.4% probability that a randomly selected person aged 20 years or older is male, given that he or she jogs. What is the probability that a randomly selected person aged 20 years or older is male and jogs? Would it be unusual to randomly select a person aged 20 years or older who is male and jogs? The probability that a randomly selected person aged 20 years or older is male and jogs is (Round to three decimal places as needed.).

In a survey of 1200 college students living in the dorms, 600 said that they had only a tablet in their rooms, 400 said that they had only laptop in their rooms, and 150 said that they had both a tablet and a laptop in their rooms. The remaining 50 students had neither. If a student is randomly chosen from this group, the probability that the student does have a laptop given that the student has a tablet is
