Out of 450 applicants for a job, 206 are male and 62 are male and have a graduate degree.

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

0.3009 is the probability that the applicant has graduate degree given he is a male.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given he following in the question:

M: Applicant is male.

G: Applicant have a graduate degree

Total number of applicants = 450

Number of male applicants = 206

$n(M) = 206$

Number of applicants that are male and have a graduate degree = 62

$n(M\cap G) = 62$

$\text{Probability} = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Number of favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}$

$P(M) = \dfrac{206}{450} = 0.4578$

$P(M\cap G) = \dfrac{n(M\cap G)}{n} = \dfrac{62}{450} = 0.1378$

We have to find the probability that the applicant has graduate degree given he is a male.

$P(G|M) = \dfrac{P(G\cap M)}{P(M)} = \dfrac{\frac{62}{450}}{\frac{206}{450}} = \dfrac{62}{206} = 0.3009$

Thus, 0.3009 is the probability that the applicant has graduate degree given he is a male.
