Question

the table summarizes results from pedestrian deaths that were caused by automobile accidents.

driver intoxicated?	pedestrian intoxicated?
yes	42	84
no	270	582

if one of the pedestrian deaths is randomly selected, find the probability that the driver was not intoxicated. (please enter a decimal, and round your answer to 4 decimal places.)
probability = □

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total deaths

Total = 42 + 84 + 270 + 582 = 978

Step2: Find driver not intoxicated deaths

Deaths = 270 + 582 = 852

Step3: Compute probability

Probability = 852 / 978 ≈ 0.8712

Answer:

0.8712
