Let A be the event that a randomly chosen employee has a college degree, and let B be the event that the chosen employee\'s income is more than $60,000.
(a) Find each of the following probabilities. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)

P(A)

=1080/4000 = 0.2700

P(B)

=1620/4000 = 0.4050

P(A and B)

=730/4000 = 0.1825

P(B | A)

=730/1080 =0.6759

P(B | Ac)

=890/2920 =0.3048
