1(a). Let F be the event that a person chosen at random is a female and L be the event that a person chosen at random is left-handed. Describe in words the events (i) FNL, (ii) FUL, (iii) FOL, (iv) F°NL°. 1(b). Referring to part (a) of this question, suppose that Prob(F) = 0.6 and Prob(L) = 0.1, and that Prob(FUL) = 0.65. From this information find Prob(FNL) and from this assess whether F and L are dependent or independent events. 1(c). Referring to part (b) of this question, find the conditional probability of the event F, giver that the event L has occurred. From this calculation assess whether the events F and L are dependent or independent.
