Clarkson University surveyed alumni to learn more about what they think of Clarkson. One part of the survey asked respondents to

indicate whether their overall experience at Clarkson fell short of expectations, met expectations, or surpassed expectations. The results showed that 4% of respondents did not provide a response, 26% said that their experience fell short of expectations, 65% of the respondents said that their experience met expectations (Clarkson Magazine, Summer, 2001). If we chose an alumnus at random, what is the probability that the alumnus would say their experience surpassed expectations? If we chose an alumnus at random, what is the probability that the alumnus would say their experience met or surpassed expectations?

Answer:

(a) The probability that a randomly selected alumnus would say their experience surpassed expectations is 0.05.

(b) The probability that a randomly selected alumnus would say their experience met or surpassed expectations is 0.67.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's denote the events as follows:

<em>A</em> = Fell short of expectations

<em>B</em> = Met expectations

<em>C</em> = Surpassed expectations

<em>N</em> = no response

<u>Given:</u>

P (N) = 0.04

P (A) = 0.26

P (B) = 0.65

(a)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected alumnus would say their experience surpassed expectations as follows:

P(C) = 1 - [P(A) + P(B) + P(N)]\\= 1 - [0.26 + 0.65 + 0.04]\\= 1 - 0.95\\= 0.05

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected alumnus would say their experience surpassed expectations is 0.05.

(b)

The response of all individuals are independent.

Compute the probability that a randomly selected alumnus would say their experience met or surpassed expectations as follows:

P(B\cup C) = P(B)+P(C)-P(B\cap C)\\=P(B)+P(C)-P(B)\times P(C)\\= 0.65 + 0.05 - (0.65\times0.05)\\=0.6675\\\approx0.67

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected alumnus would say their experience met or surpassed expectations is 0.67.

You first need to know how much miles it takes on the trail. Then you look 20 x 3 is one hour. And if the 3 group said it takes 2 hours waking for them its like this, the first group takes one hour to go thru the trail, but the second group takes and hour and half the 3 group takes 2 hours.

I wish this helps. :)
