Among the dormitory rooms of a large, imaginary university, 9 percent tested positive for highly polluted air, 27 percent for moderately polluted air, and 41 percent for slightly polluted air. Of the 2,350 randomly sampled rooms where students reside, 250 had highly polluted air, 750 moderately polluted air, and 200 slightly polluted air. We have the following summary table: Rooms Highly Polluted Rooms Moderately Polluted Rooms Slightly Polluted Other (or Unpolluted) Rooms Total 250 750 200 1150 2350 (i) How...
