            Score                           No. of students

            90 -100                                    12

            80 -89                                      30

            70 -79                                      14

            0 -59                                        8

Suppose that a student of Professor Piraneo is selected at random.  Let

  

  1. a) Use the table and the f/N rule to find P(I)
  2. b) Express the event I in terms of F, G, and H
  3. c) Determine P(F), P(G), and P(H)
  4. d) Compute P(I), using the special addition rule and your answers from parts (b) and (c).

      Compare your answer to that in part (a).
