Answer:
B) 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The conditional probability of B given A (B|A) is P(A ∩ B) / P(A), when P(A) > 0 (Probability of the intersection of A and B over the Probability of A).
in our case, P(A ∩ B is the amount of people who can snowboard and surf, which according to the picture is 36
P(A) is the amount of people who can snowboard, which from the picture is 48
This means our conditional probability is 36/48, which when simplified is 3/4.

Explanation:
This is a self-answering question: you solve it by graphing the equations.
<em>The solution is where the lines intersect</em>. The point of intersection of the lines is the point that satisfies all the equations for the lines, hence is a solution to the system. If they do not intersect, there are no solutions. If the lines are coincident, there are an infinite number of solutions.

The equations can be graphed by any of a number of methods. (My favorite is to let a graphing calculator do it.) The method of choice depends on the coefficients and the form the equations are given in. Methods of graphing are a topic for a more lengthy discussion.
