STAT 13_2:

Each of the individuals in a particular population are:
-Mature man in probability 3.0
-Mature woman in probability 0.3
-Youth child in probability 0.3

It is known that the probability that an individual has an iPhone is:
-Of the adult men 0.4
- Of the older women 0.3
-Also, the probability that an individual in the population has an iPhone is 0.25.

1. A Youth is randomly selected from the population. What is the probability of having an iPhone?
2. A randomly selected individual from the population and found to have an iPhone and not a youth. What is the probability that this individual is a mature woman?
3. Are the events "Selected Mature Woman" and "Selected iPhone Owner" independent events? Explain
