Explanation / Answer

Solution:-

f) If a female passanger is selected at random, the probability that survived is 0.8375.

Number of females = 363

Number of females who survived = 304

If a female passanger is selected at random, the probability that survived = 304/363 = 0.8375

g) If a child is selected at random, the probability that survived is 0.5319.

Number of child = 141

Number of child who survived = 75

If a child is selected at random, the probability that survived = 75/141 = 0.5319

h) If a male passanger is selected at random, the probability that survived is 0.1668.

Number of males = 230

Number of males who survived = 1379

If a male passanger is selected at random, the probability that survived is 0.1668.

i) Yes, becuase the survival rate for men was much lower than the survival rates for women and children.
