Solution: P(female) = total number of females / total number of people = 18161/ 57302
= 0.317
P(female/driver) = female drives / total drivers = 11911/ 44672 = 0.267
Since these two answers are different then events are not independent.
ution:
V works) = (14 12) / 14 = 12/14 We have to use conditional probability here.
oth work) = P(1st works and 2nd works) = P(1st works)*P(2nd works) = (12/14) *(11/13) = 0.725

at least one of the two doesnt work) = 1 P (both work) = 1 0.725 = 0.275
