(Round to the nearest thousandth as needed) (d) Find the probability a randomly selected family is taking a summer vacation this year and owns a computer. The probability is _________.(Round to the nearest thousandth as needed) (e) Are the events of owning a computer and taking a summer vacation this year independent or dependent events? Independent Dependent The table below shows the results of a survey in which 147 families were asked if they own a computer and if they will be taking a summer vacation this year. Summer Vacation This Year Yes No Total own Yes 46 11 57 a No 56 34 90 Computer Total 102 45 147 (a) Find the probability that a randomly selected family is not taking a summer vacation this year. The probability is D (Round to the nearest thousandth as needed) (b) Find the probability that a randomly selected family owns a computer. The probability is D (Round to the nearest thousandth as needed.) (c) Find the probability a randomly selected family is taking a summer vacation this year given that they own a computer. The probability is (Round to the nearest thousandth as needed) (d) Find the probability a randomly selected family is taking a summer vacation this year and owns a computer.Solution
(a)
No. of families not taking a vacation = 45
Total no. of families = 147
So probability = 45/147 = 0.306
(b) No. of families who own a computer = 57
Total no. of families = 147
So probability = 57/147 = 0.388
(c) No. of families who own a computer = 57
Out of these, no. of families going for vacation = 46
So, probability = 46/57 = 0.807
(d) No. of families taking vacation and owning a computer = 46
Total no. of families = 147
So probability = 46/147 = 0.313
(e) Independent
