Question 40

Essay

At Thomas Jefferson High School, students are heavily involved in extra-curricular
activities. Suppose that a student is to be selected at random from the students at this
school. Let the events A, M, and S be defined as follows, with the probabilities
listed: A=\mathrm { A } = a randomly selected student is active in the performing arts: P(A)=0.20\mathrm { P } ( \mathrm { A } ) = 0.20
M=\mathrm { M } = a randomly selected student is active music: P(M)=0.32\quad \mathrm { P } ( \mathrm { M } ) = 0.32
S=\mathrm { S } = a randomly selected student is active in sports:
P(S)=0.35\mathrm { P } ( \mathrm { S } ) = 0.35
Also
P(AM)=0.18;P(AS)=0.07;P(MS)=0.30P ( A \cap M ) = 0.18 ; \quad P ( A \cap S ) = 0.07 ; \quad P ( M \mid S ) = 0.30
Calculate each of the following (show your work):
a) P(AM)P ( A \mid M )
b) P(AM)P ( A \cup M )
c) P(MS)P ( M \cap S )
