Answer:
0.4 = 40% probability that the second household selected will have a traditional landline telephone
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is given by the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
We have that:
125,000 households
50,000 have traditional landlines telephones.
The first household selected does not have a traditional landline telephone.
Now we have 125000 - 1 = 124,999 households, and 50,000 have traditional landlines telephones.
What is the probability that the second household selected will have a traditional landline telephone
0.4 = 40% probability that the second household selected will have a traditional landline telephone
