The image below was generated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to monitor weather systems that could evolve into tropical cyclones. Satellite images and weather data have been entered into a computer model, which has identified three systems that might become tropical cyclones. Each system is associated with a different likelihood of turning into a tropical cyclone. The image suggests that there is some uncertainty in the computer models used to make weather predictions.

ATTEND TO PRECISION The table shows the number of tropical cyclones that formed during the hurricane seasons over a 12 -year period. Find (a) the probability to predict whether a future tropical cyclone in the Northern Hemisphere is a hurricane, and (b) the probability to predict whether a hurricane is in the Southern Hemisphere.

Probability
Independent and Dependent Events
In August 2012, tropical storm Isaac formed in the Caribbean and was headed for the Gulf of Mexico. There was an initial probability of .69 that Isaac would become a hurricane by the time it reached the Gulf of Mexico ( National Hurricane Center website, August 21, 2012)
