Answer 1

The probability that a high school student in in the marching band is 0.47

so, $P(M)=0.47$

The probability that a student plays a varsity sport is 0.32

so, $P(V)=0.32$

the probability that a student is in the marching band and plays a varsity sport is 0.24

so, we get

P(M∩V)=0.24

a student plays a varsity sport if we know she is in the marching band

so,

P(V|M)=(P(V∩M))/(P(M))

now, we can plug values

and we get

$P(V|M)=\frac{0.24}{0.47}$

$P(V|M)=0.51063$

So,

the probability that a student plays a varsity sport if we know she is in the marching band is 0.51063......Answer
