Suppose that 5% of men and 0.25% of women are color-blind from a population that is 50% men and 50% women. (a) A person is chosen at random, and that person is color-blind. What is the probability that the person is male? (b) A person is chosen at random, and that person is not color-blind. What is the probability that the person is male? (c) Two people are chosen at random, and they are both color-blind. What is the probability they are the same gender?
