(a)
Whether the tree branches represent conditional probabilities.
The tree branches represent conditional probabilities.
Given:
The tree diagram is given.
Calculation:
The tree diagram is represented as:
Conditional probability is defined as the probability of occurring an event based on the occurrence of previous event.
Hence, the branches A and M shows the conditional probability.
Conclusion:
The branches A and M shows the conditional probability.
(b)
Whether the event of having a license and the event of being an adult is an independent event or not.
No, these are not an independent event.
Given:
The tree diagram is given.
Calculation:
Independent events are those events whose occurrence does not depend on other events. Hence, having a license and being an adult are dependent on each other therefore, these events are not an independent event.
Conclusion:
No, these are not an independent event.
(c)
The probability of each tree branches.
The probability is
Given:
The tree diagram is given.
Calculation:
Conclusion:
The probability is
