Matching probability question help! Medal Rewarded!!
In a group of 100 persons, 85 had Rh positive blood (Rh factor present), 45 had Type O blood, and 38 had both type O and Rh positive blood. If one person had been selected at random from the group, what would the probability be: 1. that his blood type was Type O and Rh+? A. 3 /20 2. that his blood type was not O? B. 17/20 3. that his blood type was Rh-? C . 93/100 4. that his blood type was Type O and Rh-? D. 11/20 5. that his blood type was Rh+? E. 7/100 6. that his blood type was not Type O or else was Rh+? F. 19/50
a venn might be usefull
whats that
its a diagraham that defines sets with circles
Oh where can I find it

Oh
|dw:1366391462898:dw|
if we add the 3 sections we get: 85+45-38 = 92 so there must be 8 people in the setup that had neither Rh or O
ok..Im following

this helps us define the numbers involved and the combinations that they ask for
1. that his blood type was Type O and Rh+? A. 38 /100 2. that his blood type was not O? B. (100 - 45)/100 3. that his blood type was Rh-? (not RH) C. (100 - 85)/100 4. that his blood type was Type O and notRh? D. 45/100 * C 5. that his blood type was Rh+? E. 85/100 6. that his blood type was not Type O or else was Rh+? F. B + E
One question just so I know Im reading the diagram right. Is Rh. n. O , Rh.NOT.O?
there are 2 symbols in set theory; "n" and "u" n = AND u = OR
ohh I see, makes sense.
"and" defines the intersection (commonality) of sets
im thinking F might be off
so #1 from what I see is A #2 is D
