The following cross-tabulation shows the joint distribution of family structure with self-report delinquent status: Family Structure Delinquent No mother figure single mother two parents Total No 3254 1300 346 4900 Yes 3006 1524 570 5100 Total 6260 2824 916 10000 a) What is the probability that a person lives with two parents? b) What is the probability that someone is not a delinquent? c) What is the probability that someone lives with no mother parent or a single mother? d) P (not a delinquent | no mother parent) e) What is the probability that someone is a delinquent or lives with no mother figure? f) What is the probability that someone is a delinquent and lives with no mother figure? g) P (no mother parent|not a delinquent)
