Algebra.Com's Answer #33334 by stanbon(75887)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! 4. The probability that a married man watches a certain television shows is 0.4 [P(m)=0.4]and the probability that a married woman watches the show is 0.5 [P(w)=0.5], the probability that a man watches the show given that his wife does is 0.7 [P(m|w)=0.7]. \n" ); document.write( "--------------- \n" ); document.write( "Find the probability that \n" ); document.write( "a.) A married couple watches the show: \n" ); document.write( "P(m|w)=[P(m and w)]/[P(w)] \n" ); document.write( "Therefore P(m and w) = 0.7*0.5=0.35 \n" ); document.write( "--------------\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "b.) At least 1 person of a married couple will watch the show. \n" ); document.write( "P(at least 1 person of a couple will watch)= 1- P (neither watch) \n" ); document.write( "=1 - P(man doesn't watch)*P(woman doesn't watch) \n" ); document.write( "=1 - 0.6*0.5 = 1- 0.30 = 0.70 \n" ); document.write( "----------------\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "13.
