Thursday HW

Last homework assignment of the quarter (and the semester!)

I kinda rushed this (the tree diagram assignment provided in class)...so if you struggle, it's ok. Just do your best, and answer as many questions as you can. We will definitely be going over this tomorrow in class.

In case you lost it, here are the questions:

A private college report contains these statistics:70% of incoming freshmen attended public schools
75% of public school students who enroll as freshmen eventually graduate
90% of other freshmen eventually graduate
Create a tree diagram…
• What percent of freshmen eventually graduate?
• What is the probability that a student who attended public school graduates?
• What is the probability that a student who attended a non-public school graduates?
• What is the probability that a given graduate attended public school?
• What is the probability that a student who did not graduate attended a non-public school?
• Are graduation and public/other schooling independent? Explain.

Thank you so much to those of you who stayed after today! I truly appreciate all your hard work!

Hope to see more of you next week!
