---|---|---|---|
Successful | 7 | 12 | 19 |
Unsuccessful | 11 | 6 | 17 |
Total | 18 | 18 | 36 |
Consider the following events: S: an author is successful; U: an author is unsuccessful; N: an author is new; and E: an author is established.
Describe the events N ∩ U and N ∪ U in words.
N ∩ U is the event that an author is .
N ∪ U is the event that an author is .
Use the table to compute n(N ∩ U) and n(N ∪ U).
n(N ∩ U)=
n(N ∪ U)=
