Question

www.g Suppose that 59% of people own dogs. If you pick two people at random, what is the probability that they both own a dog

Answer 1

The value is
`P(O) = 0.3481`

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The proportion of people that own a dog is
`p = 0.59`

Generally the probability of the two selected people owning a dog is mathematically evaluated as

`P(O) = p^2`

`P(O) = (0.59 )^2`

`P(O) = 0.3481`
