Question

ifty-six percent of all American workers have a workplace retirement plan, 69% have health insurance, and 84% have health insurance given that they have a retirement plan, we select a worker at random. a) What is the probability he has health insurance and a retirement plan?

Are having health insurance and a retirement plan independent events? Demonstrate why or why not. e)

Explanation / Answer

let health insuarance is H and workplace retirement plan is R

a)hence P(R n H)=P(R)*P(H|R) =0.56*0.84=0.4704

b)P(R|H)=P(R n H)/P(H)= 0.4704/0.69= 0.6817

c) P(H U R) =P(H)+P(R)-P(H nR) =0.69+0.56-0.4704=0.7796

d)P( HuR)c =1-P(HUR) =1-0.7796 =0.2204

e)as P(H)*P(R)=0.69*0.56 =0.3864 which is not equal to P(H n R) . therefore not independent.
