The age distribution of students at a community college is given below. Age (years) Numbers of students(f) Under 21 416 21-25 420 26-30 219 31-35 51 Over 35 24 1130 A student from the community college is selected at random. Find the conditional probability that the student is at most 35 given that he or she is at least 26.

Step 1
This includes the students in the age groups 26-30, 31-35, and over 35. Adding these numbers together, we get 219 + 51 + 24 = 294 students. Show more…

The age distribution of students at a community college is given below: Age (years) Number of students (f) Under 21 2059 21-25 2072 26-30 1112 31-35 869 Over 35 227 A student from the community college is selected at random. The events A and B are defined as follows: A = event the student is under 21 B = event the student is over 35 Determine the number of outcomes that comprise the event (A & B).

The distribution ages for students at the state college is positively skewed with a mean of µ = 21.5 and a standard deviation of σ = 3. a. What is the probability of selecting a random sample of n = 4 students with an average age greater than 23? (Careful: This is a trick question!!) b. What is the probability of selecting a random sample of n = 36 students with an average age greater than 23? c. For a sample of n = 36 students, what is the probability that the average age is between 21 and 22?

Use the table, which shows the age groups of students in a college sociology class. $$\begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline \text { Age } & \text { Number of students } \\ \hline 18-19 & 11 \\ \hline 20-21 & 18 \\ \hline 22-30 & 2 \\ \hline 31-40 & 1 \\ \hline \end{array}$$ A student from the class is randomly chosen for a project. Find the probability that the student is the given age. Older than 21 years old
