1. The probability that a randomly selected elementary school teacher from a city is a female is 0.68, holds a second job is 0.42, and is a female and holds a second job is 0.29. Find the probability that an elementary school teacher selected at random from this city is a female or holds a second job?

2. It was estimated that 35% of all students were seriously concerned about employment prospects, 20% were seriously concerned about grades, and 15% were seriously concerned about both. What is the probability that a randomly chosen student is seriously concerned about at least one of these two things?

3. It was found that 45% of students think that professors must be “more tolerant” to the students. If a student is selected randomly what is the probability that he or she will disagree or have no opinion on the issue.

4. In a statistics class there are 18 juniors and 10 a seniors; 6 of the seniors are females, and 12 of the juniors are males. If a student is selected at random, find the probability of the following:

. What is the probability that it is divisible by 4 but neither by 5 nor by 7?

8. There are four tickets numbered 1, 2, 3, and 4. Suppose a two-digit number will be formed by first drawing one ticket at random and then drawing a second ticket at random from remaining three.(For instance, if the first ticket drawn shows 4 and the second shows 1, the number recorded is 41.) List the sample space and determine the following probabilities

a) What is the probability of getting an even number?

b) What is the probability of getting a number larger than 20?

c) What is the probability that obtained number is between 22 and 30?
