(b) The probability that a randomly selected student owns neither a PC nor an Apple computer. (c) The probability that a randomly selected student owns a PC or an Apple computer, but does not own both types of computers. (d) Given that the person owns an Apple computer, find the probability that they own a PC.

A number of students at a large university were asked if they owned a car and if they lived in a dorm or off campus. The table shows the results. a. What is the probability that a student selected at random lives in a dorm? b. What is the probability that a student selected at random does not own a car? $$\begin{array}{|l|c|c|}\hline & \begin{array}{c}\text { Number of } \\\text { Car Owners }\end{array} & \begin{array}{c}\text { Number Who Do } \\\text { Not Own a Car }\end{array} \\\hline \text { Dorm resident } & 32 & 88 \\\hline \text { Lives off campus } & 59 & 26 \\\hline\end{array}$$
