A company has collected the given data in this contingency table on employees.
contingency table
If an employee is selected from the this company, find the given probablities: I am showing them not simplified and just wanting to know if I am adding/subtracting correct amounts.
a) P(female and college grad) I think is 190/388 or is it (193/400)(388/400)
b) P(female OR college grad)
I think this is P(female) + P(college grad)- P(female and college grad) so
193/400 + 388/400 - whichever is correct in a).
c) P(female given college grad) I think is 190/388
d) P(college grad given female) I think is 190/193
Hoping someone can confirm which way to do a) and if I am doing the other 3 correctly. Thanks!
