Dogs are inbred for such desirable characteristics as blue eye color, but an Points: o out of 10 unfortunate by-product of such inbreeding can be the emergence of characteristics such as deafness. A 1992 study of Dalmatians (by Strain and others, as reported in The Dalmatians Dilemma) found the following: (i) 31% of all Dalmatians have blue eyes. (ii) 38% of all Dalmatians are deaf. (iii) If a Dalmatian has blue eyes, there is a 42% chance that it is deaf. What is the probability that a randomly chosen Dalmatian is blue-eyed and deaf? A. O 0.31 * 0.38 = 0.1178 B. O 0.31 * 0.42 = 0.1302 C. O 0.38 * 0.42 = 0.1596 D. O o.31/0.38 = 0.8158 E. O 0.31/0.42 = 0.7381 F. O 0.38/0.42 = 0.9048 Feedback Incorrect. The General Multiplication Rule states the following: P(B and D) = P(B) * P(D | B) = P(D) * P (B | D)
