Math 140 Advice columnist Ann Landers once asked her female readers whether they would be content with affectionate treatment by men, with no sex ever. Over 90,000 women wrote in. 72% answered “yes.” Many of the letters described bad experiences with relationships with men.

Which is the most accurate statement?

A) This sample is large (over 90,000), so the results are representative of the population of all women.

B) This result is not believable, so the survey is biased.

C) This poll is biased because of voluntary response.

D) This result is surprising, but reasonable, because many women have had bad relationships with men.

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

conditional probability is defined as:

p(a|b) = p(a∩b) / p(b)

in other words, the probability that a occurs, given that b has occurred = the probability that both a and b occur / the probability that b occurs.

in this example:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64 & turns 44) / p(turns 44).

if someone turns 64, they must have already turned 44, so:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64) / p(turns 44)

on page 42, we see that of the original 100,000, 94944 turn 44, and 81234 turn 64.   therefore:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 81234 / 94944

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 0.85560
