According to a study published by a group of University of Massachusetts sociologists, about 66.2% of the 20 million persons in this country who take Valium are women. Assume this figure to be a valid estimate. (a) Find the probability that on a given day the seventh prescription written by a doctor for Valium is the first prescribing Valium for a woman. (b) Find the probability that on a given day the seventh prescription written by a doctor for Valium is the second prescribing Valium for a woman. (a) The probability that on a given day the seventh prescription written by a doctor for Valium is the first prescribing Valium for a woman is ☐. (Round to four decimal places as needed.) (b) The probability that on a given day the seventh prescription written by a doctor for Valium is the second prescribing Valium for a woman is (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
