Question: Consider the following contingency table. B B c A 20 12 A c 50 18 a. Convert the contingency table into a joint probability table.

Consider the following contingency table.

BBc
A2012
Ac5018


a. Convert the contingency table into a joint probability table. (Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answer to 4 decimal places.)

b. What is the probability that A occurs? (Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answer to 4 decimal places.)

c. What is the probability that A and B occur? (Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answer to 4 decimal places.)

d. Given that B has occurred, what is the probability that A occurs? (Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answer to 4 decimal places.)

e. Given that Ac has occurred, what is the probability that B occurs? (Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answer to 4 decimal places.)

f. Are A and B mutually exclusive events?

multiple choice 1

  • Yes because P(A | B) ≠ P(A).

  • Yes because P(A ∩ B) ≠ 0.

  • No because P(A | B) ≠ P(A).

  • No because P(A ∩ B) ≠ 0.

g. Are A and B independent events?

multiple choice 2

  • Yes because P(A | B) ≠ P(A).

  • Yes because P(A ∩ B) ≠ 0.

  • No because P(A | B) ≠ P(A).

  • No because P(A ∩ B) ≠ 0
