Exercises: a. Pr(A4)= 157/349 = 0.4498
b. Pr(not B1)= 349-88 = 261/349 = 0.7478
c. Pr(A4 and B1)= (157+88-35) = 210/349 = 0.6017
d. Pr(A4 or B1)=
e. Pr(A4 given B1)=
| A1 | A2 | A3 | A4 | Total | |
| B1 | 14 | 26 | 13 | 35 | 88 |
| B2 | 39 | 26 | 4 | 75 | 144 |
| B3 | 0 | 5 | 65 | 47 | 117 |
| Total | 53 | 57 | 82 | 157 | 349 |
Solution
The way Pr(A4 and B1) is calculated in wrong. Because there are only 35 observations which are common to both A4 and B1. So Pr(A4 and B1)= 35/ 349 = 0.1003, it\'s not 0.6017.
Pr(A4 or B1)= Pr(A4) + Pr(B1)-Pr(A4 and B1); Now, Pr(not B1)=0.7478. So Pr(B1)=1-Pr(not B1)=1-0.7478=0.2522. and Pr(A4 and B1) = 35 / 349 = 0.1003. So Pr(A4 or B1)=0.4498+0.2522-0.1003= 0.6017 (answer);
Pr(A4 given B1) = Pr(A4 and B1) / Pr(B1) = 0.1003 / 0.2522 = 0.3977
