Extracted text: QUESTION 17 Dependent events Among the math and physics majors, the level of interest in a trip to the planetarium is higher than among the general student body. Assume that among the general student body, 15% of the students are majoring in math or physics. If we select a math or physics major the probability of that individual being interested to visit the planetarium is 60%. a) What is the probability of selecting a student at random who is either a math or physics major and who is interested to visit the planetarium. Describe this as a conditional probability. Assume the general level of interest to vist the planetarium across all the students is 25%. b) Explain how we know the events A = math or physics major and B = interested to visit the planetarium are dependent events.
