Question

I don't know if it the first or third option...

Answer 1

I think it's the first

Answer 2

Let e=earns more than 55,000
Let m = male
Let f = female
$$
P(m|e)=\cfrac{P(m\cap e)}{P(e)}=\cfrac{475}{850}\approx0.56\\
P(m)=\cfrac{550}{1000}=0.55
$$
So,
$$
P(m|e)\ne P(m)\\
\implies\text{Being male is NOT independent of earning over 55,000}
$$
