In a sales effectiveness seminar, a group of sales representatives tried two approaches to selling a customer a new automobile: the aggressive approach and the passive approach. For 1160 customers, the following record was kept:






























SaleNo SaleRow Total
Aggressive260320580
Passive466114580
Column Total7264341160


Suppose a customer is selected at random from the 1160 participating customers. Let us use the following notation for events:A = aggressive approach,Pa = passive approach,S = sale,N = no sale. So,P(A) is the probability that an aggressive approach was used, and so on.


1. Compute
P(N) andP(N |A). (Enter your answers as fractions.)



P(N) =


P(N |A) =


2. Are the events
N = no sale andA aggressive approach independent? Explain.

a. No. The two events cannot occur together.

b.Yes. The two events can occur together.

c. No.
P(N) ≠P(N |A).

d. Yes.
P(N) =P(N |A).


3. Compute
P(A or S). (Enter your answer as a fraction.)



P(A orS) =
