Question

"Let S be the event that randomly selected college student has taken a statistic course, and let C be the event that the same student has taken a chemistry course. Suppose P(S) = 0.4, P(C) = 0.31, and P(S^C) (intersection of S & C) = 0.26. Find the probability (expressed in decimals) that a student has taken statistics but not chemistry."

Step 1

4, which is the probability that a student has taken a statistics course. - P(C) = 0.31, which is the probability that a student has taken a chemistry course. - P(S ∩ C) = 0.26, which is the probability that a student has taken both a statistics and a chemistry Show more…
