An alcohol awareness task force at a Big-Ten university sampled 200 students after the midterm to ask them whether they went bar hopping the weekend before the midterm or spent the weekend studying, and whether they did well or poorly on the midterm. The following result was obtained.
Did Well on Midterm |
Did Poorly on Midterm |
|

80 |
20 |
Went Bar Hopping |
30 |
70 |
Using the Table above,

he/she will do well on the midterm?
(b) Find the probability that a randomly selected student did well on the midterm or went bar
hopping the weekend before the midterm?
(c) Determine the probability that a randomly selected student did well on the midterm and also went bar hopping the weekend before the midterm?
