Answer

Work Step by Step

a. P(human ecology) = $\frac{43}{223}$ = 0.193 b. P(firstborn) = $\frac{113}{223}$ = 0.507 c. P(firstborn and human ecology) = $\frac{15}{223}$ = 0.067 d. P(firstborn or human ecology) = P(firstborn) + P(human ecology) - P(firstborn and human ecology) = 0.193 + 0.507 - 0.067 = 0.633
