An engineering school reports that 55% of its students
were male (M), 40% of its students were between the ages of 18 and
20 (A), and that 25% were both male and between the ages of 18 and
20.
What is the probability of a random student being male
or between the ages of 18 and 20?

Stay in school: In a recent school year in the state of Washington, there were 320,000 high school students. Of these, 154,000 were girls and 166,000 were boys. Among the girls, 39,000 dropped out of school, and among the boys, 10,300 dropped out. A student is chosen at random. Round the answers to four decimal places.(a) What is the probability that the student is male?(b) What is the probability that the student dropped out?(c) What is the probability that the...

Suppose 56% of students in the school are male. Also, 7% of the males are Math Majors and 3% of the females are Math Majors. A student is chosen at random and found to be a Math Major. Find the probability that this student is male.
1) A) A class has 113 students of which 55 are juniors, 48 are male, and 24 are both, that is, junior and male. You randomly select a student. Denote the event that the student is a junior by J and the event that the student is male by M. Find P(J). Round your answer to the nearest 0.01. B) A class has 106 students of which 43 are juniors, 38 are male, and 19 are both, that is, junior...
In a recent year 8,254,170 male students and 1,839,552 female students were enrolled as undergraduates. Receiving aid were 61.8% of the male students and 66.3% of the female students. Of those receiving aid, 41.1% of the males got federal aid and 53.6% of the females got federal aid. Choose 1 at random (Hint: make a tree diagram) Round the answer to 3 decimal places. Find the probability of selecting the following. a) A male students without aid. b) A male...

Before 1918, approximately 55% of the wolves in a region were male, and 45% were female. However, cattle ranchers in this area have made a determined effort to exterminate wolves. From 1918 to the present approximately 65% of wolves in the region are male, and 35 % are female.. Biologists suspect that male wolves are more likely than females to return to an area where the population has been greatly reduced. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) (a) Before...
