Answer:

P (S∩E)  = 0.1591

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the stockholders be donated by S then the P (s)= 0.43

Let the stockholders having some degree be donated by D then the P (d)= 0.75

Let the American having some college degree be donated by E then the

P (E)= 0.37

As the events are independent their joint probability can be found by multiplying the individual probabilities

P (S∩E)  = P(s) . P (E)= 0.43 * 0.37= 0.1591
