Question

(12.34) Choose a yaung adult (age 25 to 29) at random. The prohahility Is 0.11 that the person chosen did nat complete high scho, 0.32 that the person has a high school diploma but no further education, and 0.31 that the person has at least a bachelor's degree. what is the probability 0.01 that a randomly chosen young adult has some education beyond high school but does not have a bachelor's degree? what is lhe probebilily (±0.01) uial d randomly chosen young edull has al least high schul educuun?

Explanation / Answer

Prob. ( No High School ) = 0.11

Prob. ( High School ) = 0.32

P( Bachelors Degree or more) =0.31

a) The probability that a randomly chosen young adult has some education beyond high school but does not have a bachelor's degree is

= 1 -(0.11+0.32+0.31) =0.26

Answer: Prob. = 0.26

b) The probability that a randomly chosen young adult has at least a high school education is

P(At least high school ) = 1- P(No High School ) = 1- 0.11 =0.89

Answer: Prob = 0.89
