The table below shows the number of males and females enrolled in nursing at a particular university for a recent semester. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " Nursing Majors Non-Nursing Majors Total \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Males 98 1053 1151
\n" ); document.write( "Females 741 1668 2409
\n" ); document.write( "Total 839 2721 3560\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "a) Find the probability that a random selected student is male, given that the student is a nursing major. Round to three decimal places.
\n" ); document.write( "P(male | nursing major) = p(male and nursing maj)/P(nursing major) = 98/839
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "b) Find the probability that a randomly selected student is a nursing major, given that the student is a male. Round to three decimal places.
\n" ); document.write( "P(nurs maj | male) = 98/1151
