Does it pay to ask for a raise? A national survey of heads of households showed the percentage of those who asked for a raise and the percentage who got one. According to the survey, of the women interviewed, 22% had asked for a raise, and of those women who had asked for a raise, 45% received the raise. If a woman is selected at random from the survey population of women, find the following probabilities. (Enter your answers to three decimal places.)
(a) P(woman asked for a raise)
Answer
(b) P(woman received raise, given she asked for one)
Answer
(c) P(woman asked for raise and received raise)

For a randomly found shard, find the following probabilities. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)
(a) the thickness is less than 3.0 mm
(b) the thickness is more than 7.0 mm
(c) the thickness is between 3.0 mm and 7.0 mm
When do creative people get their best ideas? USA Today did a survey of 966 inventors (who hold U.S. patents) and obtained the following information.
(a) Assuming that the time interval includes the left limit and all the times up to but not including the right limit, estimate the probability that an inventor has a best idea during each time interval: from 6 A.M. to 12 noon, from 12 noon to 6 P.M., from 6 P.M. to 12 midnight, from 12 midnight to 6 A.M. (Enter your answers to 3 decimal places.)
(b) Do the probabilities add up to 1? Why should they?
