Answer:

A. 0.9881 B. b - It is very possible that the result is not valid because the sample may not be representative of the people who use public​ Wi-Fi.

Explanation:

Probability ( of being careful about personal information when using a public Wi-Fi hotspot) = 0.67

Probability ( of not being careful about personal information when using a public Wi-Fi hotspot) = 1-0.67 = 0.33

Probability ( all the 4 people are not being careful about personal information when using a public Wi-Fi hotspot) = 0.33*0.33*0.33*0.33

=0.0119

Probability ( atleast one of the 4 people is careful about personal information when using a public Wi-Fi hotspot) = 1 - 0.0119

=0.9881

B. Additional information provided by the survey subjects will change the present result if the new information provided is contrary opinion to the information provided earlier. The result will certainly be invalid if the sample collected is not represetative of the people who use public​ Wi-Fi
