A survey taken during class revealed 30% of the students in a class bring their lunch to school. If the probability that a randomly selected student is a boy given that the student bring their lunch is 40%, what is the probability that a randomly selected student will be a boy that brings his lunch to school?
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "P(boy |lunch) = P(boy and lunch)/P(lunch) = 0.40
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "P(boy and lunch) = P(lunch)*0.4 = 0.3*0.4 = 0.12
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "You are correct
