In the current first-year class of a community college, all the students come from three local high schools. Schools I, II, and III supply respectively 30%, 40%, and 30% of the students.

A local TV station employs Desmorelda, “Mistress of the Zodiac”, as its weather forecaster. She predicts a rainy day on the basis of Lunar phases. From statistical data (which is available to Desmorelda too) it is known that the probability of a rainy day during the Full Moon is 0,478, during the Third Quarter – 0,513, during the New Moon – 0,499, and during the First Quarter – 0,506. All phases last equally and the whole Lunar cycle takes 28 days. What is the probability that on a certain day Desmorelda will predict rain?

Sickle cell anemia is an inherited disease in which red blood cells become distorted and deprived of oxygen. A person with two sickle cell genes will have the disease, but a person with only one sickle cell gene will have a mild, non-fatal anemia called sickle cell trait. Using S to represent the sickle cell gene, and s a healthy gene, the table shows the four possibilities for the children of two Ss parents. Find the probability that these parents give birth to a child who has sickle cell anemia. Second Parent First Parent Ss sS P(child has sickle cell anemia) =| (Type an integer or a simplified fraction.)
