Question
Each participant in an experiment was given one of three tasks. Let these three tasks be symbolized by A1,A2, A3 . The number of errors each participant made in performing the task was recorded by use of the categories “0 errors,” “1 error,” and “2 or more errors.” Thus, every participant was classified in two ways, by task and by number of errors. The following table shows the probabilities for these joint

Use these probabilities to find:
- The marginal probabilities of the task events A1,A2, A3
- The marginal probabilities for numbers of errors
- The conditional
probability for zero errors given task A1 - The conditional probability for two or more errors given task A2
- The conditional probability of task A3 given no errors

Among the respondents, 203 answered "none," 287 said "one," 360 said "two," 150 said "three," and 45 responded with four or more. A survey respondent is selected at random. Find the probability that his/her household has four or more cell phones in use. Is it unlikely for a household to have four or more cell phones in use? Consider an event to be unlikely if its probability is less than or equal to 0.05.arrow_forward
