Question

A newspaper company classifies its customers by gender and location of residence. The research department has gathered data from a random sample of 1858 customers. The data is summarized in the table below. Gender and Residence of Customers Residence Males Females Apartment 159 300 Dorm 235 234 With Parent(s) 186 79 Sorority/Fraternity House 120 97 Other 205 243 What is the probability that a customer is not female or does not live in an apartment? Express your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to four decimal places.

Answer 1

The table provided is as follows:

	Gender
Residence of customers	Males	Females	Total
Apartment	159	300	459
Dorm	235	234	469
With Parent(s)	186	79	265
Sorority/Fraternity House	120	97	217
Other	205	243	448
Total	905	953	1858

We need to find probability that a customer is not female or does not live in an apartment.

P(Not Female OR Does not live in apartment)

= 1 - P(Female and live in apartment)
