4. 60% of homeowners in Northern Virginia have a weekly lawn service. Those homes with a lawn service, 55% have a sprinkler system. For those without a lawn service, 30% have a sprinkler system. (Note: you do NOT need to simplify these answers. However, you MUST express each in terms of the events/probability notation – e.g., P(A|B) =.)
A poll asked people if college was worth the financial investment They also asked the respondent's gender. The table shows a summary of the responses. Name a pair of mutually exclusive events that could result when one person was selected at random from the entire group. Female Male All No 43 45 88 Unsure 85 94 401 540 179 Yes 575 976 All 703 1243 Choose the correct answer below. O A. The event selecting a person who responded yes and the event selecting a person who is male are mutually exclusive. O B. The event selecting a person who is female and the event selecting a person who responded unsure are mutually exclusive. O C. The event selecting a person who responded no and the event selecting a person who responded yes are mutually exclusive. O D. The event selecting a person who is female and the event selecting a person who responded no are mutually exclusive.
In a sales effectiveness seminar, a group of sales representatives tried two approaches to selling a customer a new automobile: the aggressive approach and the passive approach. For 1160 customers, the following record was kept: Sale No Sale Row Total Aggressive 260 320 580 Passive 466 114 580 Column Total 726 434 1160 Suppose a customer is selected at random from the 1160 participating customers. Let us use the following notation for events: A = aggressive approach, Pa = passive approach, S = sale, N = no sale. So, P(A) is the probability that an aggressive approach was used, and so on. 1. Compute P(N) and P(N | A). (Enter your answers as fractions.) P(N) = P(N | A) = 2. Are the events N = no sale and A aggressive approach independent? Explain. a. No. The two events cannot occur together. b.Yes. The two events can occur together. c. No. P(N) ≠ P(N | A). d. Yes. P(N) = P(N | A). 3. Compute P(A or S). (Enter your answer as a fraction.) P(A or S) =

A bar offers alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. They have 12 alcoholic beverages that cost $10 or more, and 5 alcoholic beverages that cost less than $10. They also have 5 non-alcoholic beverages that cost $10 or more, and 10 non-alcoholic beverages that cost less than $10. Suppose I choose a drink at random from the menu. What is the chance that it is alcoholic, given that costs $10 or more? Choose the answer that is closest. Group of answer choices 70.6% 33.33% 37.5% 20.5%
Consider the following events: A={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} B={2, 4, 6} C={1, 3, 5, 7, 9} Which of the following statements is correct?
Consider the Venn diagram below. Each of the dots outside the circle represents a biologist questioned about their research interests. 10 biologists are questioned about their research interests. Six biologists are marine biologists, represented by red dots and labeled M1,M2,M3,M4,M5,M6. Four biologists are zoologists, represented by blue dots and labeled Z1,Z2,Z3 and Z4. The two events represented in the Venn diagram are: Event A: The biologist is interested in studying insects. Event B: The biologist is interested in studying salmon habitats. The biologists who say they are only interested in studying insects are Z1,Z2,Z3,M5 and M6. The biologists who say they are only interested in studying salmon habitats are M1,M2,M3 and M4. The biologist who said they were not interested in either topic is Z4. Place the dots in the appropriate event given the information above (you may not use all of the dots), then determine if the events are mutually exclusive.
