The following contingency table summarizes the relation between whether a millennial attended a college or not and the number of their parents that completed a college degree:
  attended (C1\displaystyle {C}{1} ) didn't attend (C2\displaystyle {C}{2} ) Total
0 (E1\displaystyle {E}{1} ) 213 259
1 (E2\displaystyle {E}{2} ) 244 54
2 (E3\displaystyle {E}{3} ) 274 25

  1. For a randomly selected student, describe the following in words:
    • E1\displaystyle {E}{1}  is
    • P(E1)\displaystyle {P}{\left({E}{1}\right)}  is
  2. Find the following probabilities: (Round the answers to 4 decimal places)
    1.  P(E1)=\displaystyle {P}{\left({E}{1}\right)}=
    2.  P(C2)=\displaystyle {P}{\left({C}{2}\right)}=
    3.  P(E1C2)=\displaystyle {P}{\left({E}{1}\cap{C}{2}\right)}=
    4.  P(E1C2)=\displaystyle {P}{\left({E}{1}\cup{C}{2}\right)}=
    5.  P(E2C2)=\displaystyle {P}{\left({E}{2}{\mid}{C}{2}\right)}=
  3. Answer the following questions:
    1. Are E2\displaystyle {E}{2} and C1\displaystyle {C}{1} mutually exclusive? Explain.
    2. Are E2\displaystyle {E}{2} and C1\displaystyle {C}{1} independent? Explain.
    3. Are E3\displaystyle {E}{3}  and E2\displaystyle {E}{2}  mutually exclusive? Explain.
    4. Are E3\displaystyle {E}{3}  and E2\displaystyle {E}{2}  independent? Explain.
