Answer by robertb(5830) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I will do only part (c). (You should be able to do part (b) from the way I wrote the probabilities below.)
P(with shopping cart ∩ card) = 0.56
P(with shopping cart ∩ cash) = 0.16
P(with shopping cart ∩ check) = 0.08
P(without shopping cart ∩ card) = 0.10
P(without shopping cart ∩ cash) = 0.08
P(without shopping cart ∩ check) = 0.02
