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 AND C).

Short Answer

Expert verified

P(LANDC)=0.207

Step by step solution

01

Content Introduction

There are two events:

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.

02

Content Explanation

Given that,

P(C)=0.48P(L)=0.376

Therefore,

P(LAND鈥�C)=P(C|L)P(C)=0.55脳0.376=0.207
