In a recent study, n = 2218 college students were asked which political party (Liberal, Conservative, New Democrat, Other) they support. They were also asked to identify if the major factor in making this choice was either: a. The quality of the candidate who was running in their riding. b. Party of the candidate of choice c. Leader of the party of the candidate of choice. The data were tabulated below: Liberal Party of Conservative Candidate New Democrat Other Major Factor in selection Party Leader Candidate 481 238 75 529 75 74 93 141 215 178 56 63 Suppose that one of the students is selected at random (each student has the same probability, '/2218, of being selected.)
7. Determine the probability that the student supports a New Democrat candidate and has chosen this candidate on the basis of 'Party'. 8. Is the event A = { the student supports a New Democrat candidate } independent of the event that B = { the student chosen this candidate.on the basis of 'Party'} 9. Determine the probability that the student supports a conservative candidate and has chosen this candidate.on the basis of 'Leader'. 10. Is the event A = { the student supports a Conservative candidate } independent of the event that B = { the student chosen this candidate.on the basis of 'Leader'} 11. Determine the probability that the student supports liberal party given that the student chooses party on basis of the leader.
