QUESTION 15 Suppose that in a given town, 60% of the population is under age 40 (event A). It is found that the proportion of residents under age 40 who support mandatory inoculation is 0.72. The proportion of residents over age 40 who support mandatory inoculation is 0.52. Let event B = support mandatory inoculation. Define the term probability by choosing the correct answer below. Probability is the long-run event. Probability is the frequency of an event. Probability is the fraction of times an event occurs in n independent replications of an experiment. Probability is the long-run relative frequency of an event.
