Question

Homework You are unemployed and have the 3 job interviews at 3 different companies. Your interview at Company A went great. You predict the probability of getting a job offer form Company A is.85. Your interview at Company B was good, but not great. You estimate the probability of getting a job offer form Company B to be .75. Finally, you fell asleep at the Company C interview. You believe the probability of getting a job offer from Company C is only .30. Questions: 1.What is the probability of getting 3 job offers (A, B and C)? 2. What is the probability of getting NO job offers? 3. What is the probability of getting AT LEAST ONE job offer? 48

Explanation / Answer

P(A) = .85
P(B) = .75
P(C) = .30

a. P( getting A B and C) = P(A)*P(B)*P(C)
=.85*.75*.30 = .19125

b. P( No job offers) = (1-P(A))(1-P(B))(1-P(C))
=0.15*0.25*0.7
=.02625

c. P( Atleast one job offer) = 1-P( no job offer)
=1-.02625
= .97375
