A striking trend in higher education is that more women than men reach each level of attainment. The National Center for Educational Statistics provides projections for the number of degrees earned, classified by level and by the sex of the degree recipient. Here are the projected number of earned degrees (in thousands) in the United States for an academic year.
Associates Bachelors Masters Doctorate Total
female 603 1063 494 97 2257
male 359 804 326 85 1574
total 962 1867 820 182 3831
(a) If you choose a degree recipient at random, what is the probability that the person you choose is a man? (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)
(b) What is the conditional probability that you choose a man, given that the person chosen received a master's? (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)

In a test for esp (extrasensory perception), the experimenter looks at cards that are hidden from the subject. each card contains either a star, a circle, a wave, a cross or a square.(five shapes) as the experimenter looks at each of 20 cards in turn, the subject names the shape on the card. when the esp study described above discovers a subject whose performance appears to be better than guessing, the study continues at greater length. the experimenter looks at many cards bearing one of five shapes (star, square, circle, wave, and cross) in an order determined by random numbers. the subject cannot see the experimenter as he looks at each card in turn, in order to avoid any possible nonverbal clues. the answers of a subject who does not have esp should be independent observations, each with probability 1/5 of success. we record 1000 attempts. which of the following assumptions must be met in order to solve this problem? it's reasonable to assume normality 0.8(1000), 0.2(1000)%30 approximately normal 0.8(1000), 0.2(1000)% 10 approximately normal srs it is reasonable to assume the total number of cards is over 10,000 it is reasonable to assume the total number of cards is over 1000
