The probability that a randomly selected statistics student is a business major or likes grilled cheese is 0.94.
What is probability?
Probability is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes in other words the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.
Given that the statistics class has 50 students and among those students, 42 are business majors, and 8 like grilled cheese. Of the business majors, 3 like grilled cheese.
The probability will be calculated as:-
P(AUB) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A[tex]\cap[/tex]B)
[tex]P(AUB)=\dfrac{42}{50}+\dfrac{8}{50}-\dfrac{3}{50}[/tex]
[tex]P(AUB) = \dfrac{50-3}{50}[/tex]
[tex]P(AUB)=\dfrac{47}{50}[/tex]
P(AUB) = 0.94
Therefore the probability that a randomly selected statistics student is a business major or likes grilled cheese is 0.94.
