Using conditional probability, and considering that the percentage of individuals from Houston is not given, it is found that the correct option is given by:

  • D. insufficient data

<h3>Conditional Probability </h3>

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which

  • P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
  • P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.
  • P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this problem, the events are:

  • Event A: Individual from Houston.
  • Event B: Positive response for program 1.

From Houston, 69.7% of people have positive responses for program 1, hence P(A \cap B) = 0.697.

However, to find the conditional probability, the percentage of people surveyed from Houston is needed, and this probability is not given, hence, the is insufficient data, and option D is correct.

Please help me find x in the proportion: 4/x=5/9.
Nonamiya [84]
First multiply 4 so x is on its own.

5/9 multiplied by 4/1 is 20/9.

20/9 simplifies to 2 and 2/9.

x = 2 and 2/9

Hope this helped, and please mark brainliest! :)
