Question

Of all the applicants being considered for a job opening 9 completed college but have no

Answer 1

Probabilities are used to determine the chances of events

The probability that an applicant with a college degree or an applicant who hasn't attended  college is hired is 0.80

Using the following representations

$\mathbf{Attending\ college\ without\ experience \to A}$

$\mathbf{Completed\ college\ without\ experience \to B}$

$\mathbf{Have\ experience\ no\ college\to C}$

So, we have:

$\mathbf{A = 9}$

$\mathbf{B = 24}$

$\mathbf{C = 12}$

The probability that an applicant with a college degree or an applicant who hasn't attended  college is hiredis: P(B or C)

So, we have:

$\mathbf{P(B\ or\ C) = P(B) + P(C)}$

This gives

$\mathbf{P(B\ or\ C) = \frac{B + C}{Total}}$

So, we have:

$\mathbf{P(B\ or\ C) = \frac{24+12}{9+24+12}}$

$\mathbf{P(B\ or\ C) = \frac{36}{45}}$

$\mathbf{P(B\ or\ C) = 0.80}$

Hence, the probability that an applicant with a college degree or an applicant who hasn't attended  college is hired is 0.80
