Find the probability that a randomly selected loan was an adjustable loan. b.) Find the probability that a randomly selected loan was for a condo. c.) Find the probability that a randomly selected loan was a fixed-rate and for a condo. d.) Find the probability that a randomly selected loan was a fixed-rate or for a condo. e.)

Explanation / Answer

from above

a) probability =2625/3750

b) probability =1165/3750

c)probability =377/3750

d)probability =(1125+788)/3750=1913/3750

e)probability =377/1125

f)probability =1500/1875

g)no as thre are some elements in there

h)No, as P(adjustable and single family)=1500/3750 which is not equal to P(adjustable)*P(single family)

single family condo multifamily total adjustable 1500 788 337 2625 fixed rate 375 377 373 1125 total 1875 1165 710 3750
