(f) 0.0327
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's denote the events as follows:
M = a woman in the civilian labor force is married
N = a woman in the civilian labor force is never married
D = a woman in the civilian labor force is divorced'
S = a woman in the civilian labor force is separated
W = a woman in the civilian labor force is widowed
U = a woman in the civilian labor force is unemployed.
The provided information is:
P (M) = 0.518 P (U|M) = 0.036
P (N) = 0.282 P (U|N) = 0.085
P (D) = 0.128 P (U|D) = 0.052
P (S) = 0.041 P (U|S) = 0.083
P (W) = 0.031 P (U|W) = 0.057
(a)
The law of total probability states that:
Compute the probability a randomly selected woman from the civilian labor force is unemployed as follows:
Thus, the probability of a woman being unemployed is 0.054.
(b)
Compute the probability that an unemployed woman is married:
Thus, the probability that an unemployed woman is selected is married is 0.3413.
(c)
Compute the probability that an unemployed woman is never married:
Thus, the probability that an unemployed woman is selected is never married is 0.4439.
(d)
Compute the probability that an unemployed woman is divorced:
Thus, the probability that an unemployed woman is selected is divorced is 0.1233.
(e)
Compute the probability that an unemployed woman is separated:
Thus, the probability that an unemployed woman is selected is separated is 0.0630.
(f)
Compute the probability that an unemployed woman is widowed:
Thus, the probability that an unemployed woman is selected is widowed is 0.0327.
