Answer: The probability of choosing a person at random who does NOT like Zaxby's = 0.6

Explanation:

Given : The result of survey of 1500 people about their favorite fast food restaurant.: 40% → like Zaxby's , 90% → like Chick-Fil-A

Now, the probability of choosing a person at random who does NOT like Zaxby's = percent of people does not like Zaxby's

= 100% - ( percent of people like Zaxby's)

= 100% - 40%

= 60% or 0.6 [
60%=(60)/(100)=0.6]

Hence, the probability of choosing a person at random who does NOT like Zaxby's = 0.6
