(a)64 or over and has a loan (b) Has a loan (c) Are the events that a person is 64 or over and that the person has a loan independent? Explain. (a) The probability that a person is 64 or over and has a loan is _______. (Type an integer or decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.) B. C.

Suppose we conduct a study about the effect of a certain trait on the recovery of a person from a certain illness. Let the probability that a person recovers from a certain illness be equal to 0.4 and the probability that a person possesses the trait be equal to 0.3. If getting an illness and possessing the trait are independent events, what is the probability that at least 10 out of the 15 survivors possess the trait?
