Suppose that a certain college class contains 47 students of these, 28 are sophomores, 27 are business majors, and 8 are neither. A student is selected at random from the class. (a) What is the probability that the student is both a sophomore and a business major? (b) Given that the student selected is a business major, what is the probability that he is also a sophomore? Write your responses as fractions. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)
Suppose that a certain college class contains 40 students. Of these, 26 are sophomores, 21 are history majors, and 5 are neither. A student is selected at random from the class.

Data were collected from a survey given to graduating college seniors on the number of times they had changed majors. From that data, a probability distribution was constructed. The random variable X is defined as the number of times a graduating senior changed majors. It is shown below: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 P(X = a) 0.28 0.238 0.196 0.153 0.073 0.039 0.017 0.003 0.001 a. What is the probability that a randomly selected student changed...
Suppose that a certain four-year college classifies its students as either science majors or humanities majors. Suppose that each year, 10 percent of science majors switch their major to the humanities, and 5 percent of humanities majors switch their major to the sciences. (a) Model this process as a Markov chain. Write down the state space and transition prob- abilities. (b) If 60 percent of students are science majors when they enter as freshmen, what percentage of students are science...
Suppose that in a senior college class of 500 students it is found that 210 smoke, 258 drink alcoholic beverages, 216 eat between meals, 122 smoke and drink alcoholic beverages, 83 eat between meals and drink alcoholic beverages, 97 smoke and eat between meals and 52 engage in al three of these bad health practices. If a member of this senior class is selected at random, find the probability that the student engages in at least one of these three...
Letter C?? Data were collected from a survey given to graduating college seniors on the number of times they had changed majors. From that data, a probability distribution was constructed. The random variable X is defined as the number of times a graduating senior changed majors. It is shown below: P(X = ?) 0.18 0.276 0.228 0.193 0.068 0.038 0.013 0.003 0.001 a. What is the probability that a randomly selected student changed his or her major at least once?...
The time needed for college students to complete a certain paper and pencil maze follows a Normal distribution, with a mean of 70 seconds and a standard deviation of 15 seconds. You wish to see if the mean time μ is changed by meditation, so you have a group of 9 college students meditate for 30 minutes and then complete the maze. Question 29 of 40> The time needed for college students to complete a certain paper and pencil maze...
The person does not have neither a male nor & college degree. 06: One class contains 13 male students and 10 female students. A second class contains 7 male students and 15 female students. One student is selected from the first class and placed unseen in the second class. What is the probability that a student now selected from the second class is a female?
