Explanation / Answer

Given,

Percentage of persons opposing casino=58

Out of this 58%, 50%(5 out of 10) strongly oppose casino

Remaining 50% out of this 58% does not strongly oppose casino

a) Probability that a randomly selected resident opposes the casino and stongly opposes the casino=0.58*0.5=0.29

b) Probability that a a randomly selected resident who opposes the casino does not stongly oppose the casino=0.58*0.5=0.29

c) It is not unusual for a randomly selected resident to oppose the casino and strongly oppose the casino since probability is 0.29 .(if probability is less than 0.05, it is considered unusual)
