There are 24 male and 36 female patrons in a restaurant. Of the 11 patrons under 10 years old, 6 are male. Of the 14 patrons over 55 years old, 9 are female. A patron is selected at random. Find the probability. A. (Female or under 10) B. (Under 10 or over 55)

(a)0.7

(b)0.42

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition: Mutually exclusive events are events that occur independently of one another.

The table below gives the distribution of the patrons in the restaurant.

(a)P(Female or under 10)

These are not mutually exclusive events, therefore:

(b) P(Under 10 or over 55)

These are mutually exclusive events, therefore:
