Big Burger is a fast food restaurant that has 450 locations all over the U.S. Use the excel output above to answer the following question.
2) If a selected restaurant is in a city with a population size under 50,000, what is the probability the restaurant is in the south?

KEY

Region 1 = NW

Population 1 = Under 50,000

Region 2 = SW

Population 2 = 50,000 - 100,000

Region 3 = NE

Population 3 = Over 100,000

Region 4 = SE

Explanation / Answer

1)P( restaurant is in the west| not in city with population size between 50,000 and 100,000)

=P(region 1 or 2|not in population 2) =(38+35+34+37)/(148+154)=144/302 =0.4768

2)

P( restaurant is in the south| population size under 50,000)

P(region 2 and 4|population1 )=(35+32)/148=67/148=0.4527
