Question

A survey of employees at a large company found the following relative frequencies for the one-way distances they had to travel to arrive at work:

.

                                                       Number of Miles (One-Way)

                                                

                                             A                    B                    C                    D                  E                    F

                                            _5                   6–10              11–15            16–20            21–30             _31

        Relative

        Frequency                      0.38                  0.25                0.16                0.09                  0.07                0.05

 

  1. What is the probability that a randomly selected individual will have to travel 11 or more miles to work?
  2. What is the probability that a randomly selected individual will have to travel between 6 and 15 miles to work?
  3. Draw a Venn diagram that includes the relative frequency probabilities in the table.
  4. Using the letter identifications provided, calculate the following probabilities:

 P(A or B or E); P(A or F); P(A9 or B); P(A or B or C9).
