Chapter 5 Exercise 4
A large company must hire a new president. The Board of Directors
prepares a list of five candidates, all of whom are equally qualified. Two
of these candidates are members of a minority group. To avoid bias in
the selection of the candidate, the company decides to select the
president by lottery.
a. What is the probability one of the minority candidates is hired?
(Round your answer to 1 decimal place.)
b. Which concept of probability did you use to make this estimate?

The chair of the board of directors says, "There is a 50% chance this
company will earn a profit, a 30% chance it will break even, and a 20%
chance it will lose money next quarter."
a. Use an addition rule to find the probability the company will not lose
money next quarter. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
b. Use the complement rule to find the probability it will not lose
money next quarter. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

A National Park Service survey of visitors to the Rocky Mountain region
revealed that 50% visit Yellowstone Park, 40% visit the Tetons, and 35%
visit both.
a. What is the probability a vacationer will visit at least one of these
attractions? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
b. What is the probability .35 called?
c. Are the events mutually exclusive?

P(A1) = .20, P(A2) = .40, and P(A3) = .40. P(B1|A1) = .25. P(B1|A2) = .05,
and P(B1|A3) = .10.
Use Bayes' theorem to determine P(A3|B1). (Round your answer to 4
decimal places.)
