Guilty plea Not guily plea
Sentenced to prison: 392 58
Not sentenced to prison 564 14

Solution

14 578

a) if one person is selected we have to find the probability of that he must not be sentenced to prison and did not enter plea of guilty.

probability not sentence to prison = 564/1028

probability of not guilty plea = 14/1028

required answer = the common of both as we have to find the non guilty plea with no prison hence answer = 14/1028

b) one person with sentence to prison probability = 392/1028

proability person entered a plea of guilty = 956/1028

required answer will be the common of both as we have to find both qualities in one hence the answer will be 392/1028

Guilty plea Not guily plea total
Sentenced to prison: 392 58 450
Not sentenced to prison 564
