<span>(a) The probability that a person selected at random from the
general population is senior citizen who will get the flu this season is 0.14 x 0.18 = 0.0252
</span>(b) <span>The probability that a person selected at random from the general
population is a person under age 65 who will get the flu this year is (1 - 0.14) x 0.23 = 0.86 x 0.23 = 0.1978
(c) (a) 0.85 x 0.18 = 0.153
(b) (1 - 0.85) x 0.23 = 0.15 x 0.23 = 0.0345
(d) (a) 0.52 x 0.18 = 0.0936
(b) (1 - 0.52) x 0.23 = 0.48 x 0.23 = 0.1104

Let x denote the length of the longer first piece and y the length of the shorter piece.
We have x+y=10 and x=3y-2 hence 3y-2+y=10 => 4y=12 => y=3 => x=7
The shorter piece is 3 feet long
