Step by step solution

01

Given information

The whole numbers starting at 1and less than 20is given by:

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19

A={2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18}

B={14,15,16,17,18,19}

02

Explanation (part a)

Sample space Sis given by the whole numbers starting from one and less than 20:

S={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19}

03

Explanation (part b)

As per the given information from the sample space S, event AandBare as follows:

A={2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18}B={14,15,16,17,18,19}

04

Explanation (part c)

Probability of Ais given by:

P(A)=n(A)n(S)

From the solutions of part a and part b, n(S)=19,n(A)=9andn(B)=6.

P(A)=919

Probability of B is given by:

P(B)=n(B)n(S)=619

05

Explanation (part d)

AANDB=ABAANDB={2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18}{14,15,16,17,18,19}AANDB={14,16,18}

AORB=ABAORB={2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18}{14,15,16,17,18,19}AORB={2,4,6,8,10,12,14,15,16,17,18,19}

06

Explanation (part e)

From the solutions of part d, we get n(AANDB)=3andn(AORB)=12.

The probability of AANDBis given by

P(AANDB)=n(AANDB)n(S)=319

The probability of AORBis given by

P(AORB)=n(AORB)n(S)=1219

07

Explanation (part f)

A'=S-AA'={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19}-{2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18}A'={1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17,19}

From the above solution, n(A')=10

P(A')=n(A')n(S)=1019

08

Explanation (part g)

From the solutions of part c and part f, we get

P(A)+P(A')=919+1019=1919=1

09

Explanation (part h)

From the solutions of part e and part b, we get

P(AB)=P(AANDB)P(B)=36

P(BA)=P(AANDB)P(A)=39

Therefore the probabilities are not equal.

What is the probability of rolling an even number of dots with a fair, six-sided die numbered one through six?

Three professors at George Washington University did an experiment to determine if economists are more selfish than other people. They dropped 64stamped, addressed envelopes with $10cash in different classrooms on the George Washington campus. 44%were returned overall. From the economics classes 56%of the envelopes were returned. From the business, psychology, and history classes 31%were returned.

Let:R = money returned;E = economics classes; O = other classes

a. Write a probability statement for the overall percent of money returned.

b. Write a probability statement for the percent of money returned out of the economics classes.

c. Write a probability statement for the percent of money returned out of the other classes.

d. Is money being returned independent of the class? Justify your answer numerically and explain it.

e. Based upon this study, do you think that economists are more selfish than other people? Explain why or why not. Include numbers to justify your answer.

E and F are mutually exclusive events. P(E) = 0.4; P(F) = 0.5. Find P(E鈭).

Use the following information to answer the next ten exercises. Forty-eight percent of all Californians registered voters prefer life in prison without parole over the death penalty for a person convicted of first degree murder. Among Latino California registered voters, 55%prefer life in prison without parole over the death penalty for a person convicted of first degree murder. 37.6%of all Californians are Latino. In this problem, let: 鈥 C = Californians (registered voters) preferring life in prison without parole over the death penalty for a person convicted of first degree murder. L = Latino Californians. Suppose that one Californian is randomly selected.

Find P(L).

Use the following information to answer the next 12exercises. The graph shown is based on more than 1,70,000interviews done by Gallup that took place from January through December 2012. The sample consists of employed Americans 18years of age or older. The Emotional Health Index Scores are the sample space. We randomly sample one Emotional Health Index Score.

Find the probability that an Emotional Health Index Score is more than 81?
