question that follows. Do not round any of your responses. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) Fill in the missing probabilities.
P(HD) = 0 P(DOH)= P(D)=0.9 P(DOH) = 0 P(HD) = 0.35 = P( HD)= 0 PD nH)= = PD) = 0 = PD n ) = 0 P(HD)=0.7 (b) What is the probability that a randomly chosen voter voted for Hector?
Recently, Hector ran for president of the local school board. Of those who voted in the election, 90% had a high school diploma, and the other 10% did not. Hector got 65% of the vote of those with high school diplomas, while he got only 30% of the vote of those without high school diplomas. Let D denote the event that a randomly chosen voter (in the school board election) had a high school diploma and D denote the event that a randomly chosen voter did not have a high school diploma. Let H denote the event that a randomly chosen voter voted for Hector and H denote the event that a randomly chosen voter did not vote for Hector. Fill in the probabilities to complete the tree diagram below, and then answer the P(HD) = 0 P(DOH)= P(D)=0.9 P(DOH) = 0 P(HD) = 0.35 = P( HD)= 0 PD nH)= = PD) = 0 = PD n ) = 0 P(HD)=0.7 (b) What is the probability that a randomly chosen voter voted for Hector?
