The probability of selecting a student with a partime job without a car is 0.2 and the probability of p(no car | does not have a part time job) is 0.571

Using the parameters given for our Calculation;

  • N(students with part time jobs without a car) = 30
  • N(Total number surveyed) = 108 + 42 = 150

Probability = Number of favorable outcomes/ Total possible outcomes

1.)

P(Students with part time job without a car) = 30/150 = 0.2

2.)

p(no car | does not have a part time job)

Using the concept;

P(A|B) = P(AnB) / P(B)

p(no car | does not have a part time job) = 24/(18+24)

= 24/42

= 0.571

Complete Question:

The table below shows the number of students that do or do not have their own car and whether they have part time jobs.

1. p(a student with a part time job without a car)

2. p(no car | does not have a part time job)
