Question 7 of 13 • LAUSD-Geometry B (Prescriptive) - Summer
A researcher randomly selected 132 high school students and asked them about their study habits and lighting preference when studying. The two-way table displays the data. Suppose one of the students is randomly selected. Let L = the student prefers low light and S = the student sometimes studies.Which of the following is the correct value and interpretation of P(S|L)?
Answer
A
P(S|L) = 0.35; given that the student prefers low light, there is a 0.35 probability that they sometimes study.B
P(S|L) = 0.35; given that the student sometimes studies, there is a 0.35 probability that they prefer low light.C
P(S|L) = 0.57; given that the student prefers low light, there is a 0.57 probability that they sometimes study.D
P(S|L) = 0.57; given that the student sometimes studies, there is a 0.57 probability that they prefer low light.
