Question

Dogs are inbred for such desirable characteristics as blue eye color; but an unfortunate by-product of such inbreeding can be the emergence of characteristics such as deafness. A 1992 study of Dalmatians (by Strain and others, as reported in The Dalmatians Dilemma) found the following:

(i)	31% of all Dalmatians have blue eyes.
(ii)	38% of all Dalmatians are deaf.
(iii)	42% of blue-eyed Dalmatians are deaf.

What is the probability that a randomly chosen Dalmatian is blue-eyed and deaf?

.31 * .38 = .1178
.31 * .42 = .1302
.38 * .42 = .1596
.31 / .38 = .8158
.31 / .42 = .7381
.38 / .42 = .9048
