(a)
P(achieve grade C) = P(attend regularly)*P(Achieve grade C | attend regularly) + P(does not attend regularly)*P(Achieve grade C | does not attend regularly)
= 0.80*0.85 + 0.20*0.30
= 0.74
(b)
P(attended class regularly | achieved grade C) = P( attended class regularly and achieve grade C) / P(achieve grade C)
now,
P( attended class regularly and achieve grade C) = P(attend regularly)*P(Achieve grade C | attend regularly)
= 0.80*0.85 = 0.68
So,
P(attended class regularly | achieved grade C) = 0.68 / 0.74 = 0.92

o A course in statistics is one of the most difficult at the local university. Because of this, for the past decade the university has arranged for teaching assistants to hold frequent discussion sessions as part of the course. Since the inception of the discussion sessions, 60% of the students enrolled in the course regularly attended the sessions, and the other 40% did not. Students regularly attending the sessions have performed better than those not regularly attending. In particular, 65%...

In a course, 80% students who attended the lectures. For those students who attended lectures, the probability of passing the exam is 0.9, whereas for those students who did not attend the lectures, the probability of passing the exam is 0.6. What is the probability of a randomly selected student in the class to pass the exam? b) Given that the person does not use pass the exam, what is the probability that the student did not attend the lectures?

3. Exam grades across all students across all sections of an introductory statistics class are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 72 and a standard deviation of 11. Use the normal distribution to find answer the following questions. a. What percent of students scored above a 90%? b. What percent scored below 60%? c. If the lowest 5% of students will be required to attend an extra study session, what grade is the cutoff for being required to attend...

Forty percent of the students who enroll in a statistics course go to the statistics laboratory on a regular basis. Past data indicates that 70% of those students who use the lab on a regular basis make a grade of A in the course. On the other hand, only 10% of students who do not go to the lab on a regular basis make a grade of A. If a particular student made an A, determine the probability that she...

The grade point averages of the students in a large statistics class follow a normal distribution with a mean of 3.0 and a standard deviation of 0.25. What is the probability that a randomly sampled student from this class has a GPA of less than 2.95? (hint: you will need to use the table on page 175)
