Refer to Q.2, Exercise 14.2. What is the empirical probability that an engineer lives:(i) less than 7 km from her place of work?(ii) more than or equal to 7 km from her place of work?(iii) within `1/2k m`from her place of work?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

From the given figure,
Number of engineers living less than 7km from her workplace `=9`
Number of engineers living more than or equal to 7km from her workplace `=40-9 =31`
Number of engineers living within 1/2 km from her workplace `=0`
Total number of engineers `= 40`

(i) Probability an engineer living less than 7km from her workplace `=9/40`
