Answer:
~62%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n(A) be the number of students signed up for Algebra II.
Given that n(A) = 298
Let n(B) be the number of students signed up for Chemistry.
Given that n(B) = 328
n(A [tex]\cup[/tex] B) will be the number of students who have signed up for either one or both of two subjects.
n(A [tex]\cup[/tex] B) = 386
Formula for n(A [tex]\cup[/tex] B):
n(A [tex]\cup[/tex] B) = n(A) + n(B) - n(A [tex]\cap[/tex] B)
Where n(A [tex]\cap[/tex] B) is the number of students signed up for both the courses.
Putting the values in the formula above:
386 = 298 + 328 - n(A [tex]\cap[/tex] B)
n(A [tex]\cap[/tex] B) = 240
Formula for Probability of an event E:
[tex]P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text {Total number of cases}}[/tex]
[tex]P(A \cap B) = \dfrac{n(A \cup B) }{n(A \cap B)}[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow P(A \cap B) = \dfrac{240 }{386}\\\Rightarrow P(A \cap B) = 62.17\%[/tex]
Hence, the required probability is ~62%
The probability that a student chosen at random from the 386 will be signed up for both of the courses should be 62%.
Calculation of the probability:
Since total of 386 students are taking either one or both of the two courses. If 298 students signed up for Algebra II and 328 have signed up for Chemistry
So here the no of students that signed up for both subjects should be
= 298 + 328 - 386
= 240
Now the probability is
[tex]= 240\div 386[/tex]
= 62%
Hence, The probability that a student chosen at random from the 386 will be signed up for both of the courses should be 62%.
