Imagine a pet shelter that has noticed older animals (age 5+) have lower adoption rates. This shelter (which has only cats and dogs) has 40% cats and 60% dogs. Twenty percent of the cats are older, and 10% of the dogs are older. The adoption percentage for older cats is 5%, and for older dogs is 10%. Cats that are not older are equally likely to be adopted as not adopted, and this is the same for dogs that are not older. For (b)-(f), write the probability statement and then calculate your answer. a) Draw the probability tree and label all events and probabilities in it. b) What is the probability that a randomly chosen animal is not older, a dog, and is adopted? c) What is the probability that a randomly chosen animal is older, a cat, and is not adopted? d) What is the probability that a randomly chosen animal is adopted? e) Suppose a randomly chosen animal is a cat, what is the probability that it is adopted? f) Suppose a randomly chosen animal is adopted, what is the probability that it is a cat?
