Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation

From the graph, we are asked to find P(senior|Female). This is given as

`P\left(senior|Female\right)=\frac{number\text{ }of\text{ }seniors\text{ }who\text{ }arefemales}{number\text{ of females}}=(3)/(16)`

In percentage, we will have this as

`(3)/(16)*100=18.75\approx19\text{\%}`

Answer: 19%
