1. What is the probability that a randomly chosen patient visits a chiropractor? (4 points) - Define the events PT= patient visits physical therapist and C = patient visits chiropractor. - We are given P(PT and C) = 0.28, P( PT or C ´ ) = 0.10 and P(PT) = 0.51. - Find P(C). - Using the addition rule, P(PT or C) = P(PT) + P(C) – P(PT and C). - Solving for P(C), we get P(C) = P(PT or C) – P(PT) + P(PT and C). - By the definition of complements, P(PT or C) = 1 – P( PT or C ´ ) = 1 –...
