15. A small school has 24 boys graduating. Half of them are
funny and 7 are good dancers. Eight of them are neither funny nor
good dancers. One boy is selected at random. Translate the
following into conditional probability notation, and then find the
probabilities:
a) Probability he is a good dancer given that he is
funny.
b) Probability he is funny given that he is a good
dancer.
c) If he is a good dancer, what is the probability he is not
funny? d) If he is not a good dancer, what is the probability he is
funny?
