Answer:

Explanation:

A.

P=(219/800)×(218/799)≈0.0747≈0.075

B.

800-219=581

P=(581/800)×(580/799)≈0.527

c.

P( 1 think role models and one thinks not role models)+P(both thinks they are role models)=(219/800)×(581/799)+(219/800)×(218/799)=(219×581+219×218)/(800×799)

=[219(581+218)]/(800×799)

=(219×799)/(800×799)

=219/800

=0.27375

=0.274
