Ged: in a certain high school, the probability that a student drops out is , and the probability that a dropout gets a high-school equivalency diploma (ged) is. What is the probability that a randomly selected student gets a ged? round your answer to four decimal places, if necessary.

Respuesta :

Using the concept of probability and the information given, it is determined that the probability of a randomly selected student receiving a GED is 0.0175 = 1.75%.

The specified percentages are:

7% of students drop out and 25% of them get  GED.

So 100 - 7 = 93% of students will not drop out. So 0% have a diploma so they doesn't need a GED.

as a result:

p =  0.07 (0.25) + 0.93 (0) =0.0175

A randomly selected student has a 0.0175 = 1.75% chance of receiving her GED.

your question is incomplete but most probably your full question was

In a certain high school, the probability that a student drops out is 0.07 , and the probability that a dropout gets a high-school equivalency diploma (GED) is 0.25 . What is the probability that a randomly selected student gets a GED?
