Answer:
Hello your questions is incomplete attached below is the missing part of the question
answer : A ) 0.647 , (B) 0.353, (C) students are more likely to spend the money than to have kept it
Step-by-step explanation:
from the attached table below
Given data :
Total number of students = Number of students who spent money + number of students who kept money
Total number of students = (33+13 ) + (18 + 27 ) = 91
p(Number of students given four quarters) = (33 +18 ) / 91 = 51/91
p( number of students who spent money ) = ( 33 +13 ) / 91 = 46/91
p( number of students who saved money ) = (18 +27 ) / 91 = 45 /91
p( number of students who spent money and given four quarters ) = 33/91
p( number of students who saved money and given four quarters ) = 18/91
A) The probability of randomly selecting a student who spent the money and also given four quarters
= p ( 33/91 | 51/91 )
= 33/91 * 91/51
= 33/51 = 0.647
B ) The probability of randomly selecting a student who kept the money and given that the student was given four quarters
= p ( 18/91 | 51/91 )
= 18/91 * 91/51
= 18 /51 = 0.353
C) students are more likely to spend the money than to have kept it
