Answer:
a. 0.8125
b. 0.1875
c. 0.03125
Step-by-step explanation:
from the information given, we can come up with the following data
Total No of students =128
Total Nos of students going to college = 48+56=104
Total Nos of students not going to college and on the honor roll= 52-48=4
a. To determine the probability of students going to college we have
P(going to college) = (total number of students going to college)/total number of students
P(going to college) = 104/128
P(going to college) = 0.8125
b. To determine the probability of students not going to college, we use the rule that says total probability is 1, hence
Pr(not going to college)=1-Pr(going to college)
Pr(not going to college)=1-0.8125
Pr(not going to college)=0.1875
c. To determine the probability of students NOT going to college and on the pay roll we have
Pr = (Total Number of students not going to college and on the honor roll)/total number of students
Pr=4/128
Pr=0.03125
