5. (12 pts) Eric is running for Mayor of Flavortown. He is gauging support for his campaign, so he conducts a poll and finds that 80% of registered Democrats, 75% of Republicans, and 78% of Independents would vote for Eric for Mayor. In Flavortown 49% of citizens are Democrats, 46% are Republicans, and the remaining 5% are Independents. a) Construct a tree diagram of this situation, and label all the relevant probabilities along the branches. Use D for Democrat, R for Republican, I for Independent, and V for "Voted for Eric". b) Given that a randomly selected voter did not vote for Eric, what is the probability they were an Independent?
