In a recent Harris Poll, a random sample of adult Americans (18 years and older) was asked, €œWhen you see an ad emphasizing that a product is €˜Made in America,€™ are you more likely to buy it, less likely to buy it, or neither more nor less likely to buy it?€ The results of the survey, by age group, are presented in the following contingency table.

(a) What is the probability that a randomly selected individual is 35 to 44 years of age, given the individual is more likely to buy a product emphasized as €œMade in America€?
(b) What is the probability that a randomly selected individual is more likely to buy a product emphasized as €œMade in America,€ given the individual is 35 to 44 years of age?
(c) Are 18- to 34-year-olds more likely to buy a product emphasized as €œMade in America€ than individuals in general?
