of all the students admitted to a college,58% take a workshop prior to taking the math placement test. out of all the admitted students, 80% are placed out of the lower level remedial class,while of all students that take the workshop 90% are placed out of remedial class. what is the probability that a random selected newly admitted student will take the workshop and will be placed out of the lower remedial class?

Solutions

Expert Solution

P(placed out of remedial class | take the workshop) = 0.9

P(take the workshop) = 0.58

P(student will take the workshop and will be placed out of the lower remedial class) = P(placed out of remedial class | take the workshop) * P(take the workshop)

                                                                                        = 0.9 * 0.58

                                                                                        = 0.522
