4. In a study of television viewing habits among married couples, a researcher found that for a popular Saturday night program 25% of the husbands viewed the program regularly and 30% of the wives viewed the program regularly. The study found that for couples where the husband watches the program regularly 80% of the wives also watch regularly.

a) What is the probability that both husband and wife watch the program regularly?

b) What is the probability that at least one-husband or wife-watches the program regularly?

c) What percentage of married couples do not have at least one regular viewer of the program?

5. Of 20 rats in a laboratory, 12 are males and 9 are infected with a virus. Of the 12 male rats, 7 infected with the virus. One rat is randomly selected from the laboratory.

a) If the selected rat is found to be infected, what is the probability that it is a female?

b) If the selected rat is found to be a male, what is the probability that it is infected?

c) Are the events “the selected rat is infected” and “the selected rat is male” independent? Why or why not?

6. Suppose , .

a) Determine if A and B are independent.

b) Determine if A and B are mutually exclusive.

c) Find if A and B are mutually exclusive.
