Suppose that an individual is randomly selected from the population, and define events by A = {type A selected}, {type B selected}, and C = {ethnic group 3 selected}. а. Calculate P(А), Р(С), and P(А N C). b. Calculate both P(A|C) and P(C|A), and explain in con- text what each of these probabilities represents. c. If the selected individual does not have type B blood, what is the probability that he or she is from ethnic group 1? В
