Question

From the table above what is the probability that the respondent chosen at random answers something other than somewhat likely

Answer 1

Find the probability that the respondent will choose "somewhat likely". Divide the number of respondents who chose the option by the total number of respondents.

`\begin{gathered} P(SL)=(290)/(\~likely)=(290)/(210+290+340+80+80)) \\ =(290)/(1000) \\ =0.29 \end{gathered}`

Since we need to find the probability of the complement of "somewhat likely", subtract the obtained probability from 1.

`\begin{gathered} P(notSL)_{}=1-0.29 \\ =0.71 \end{gathered}`
