Answer to Question 1

P(A ) = 0.27 + 0.13 + 0.02 = 0.42

Answer to Question 2

Inspect the data using either graphical tools or descriptive statistics. If the mean is quite a bit different from the median, there may be an outlier or outliers. We would want to examine the outlier to make sure that it was a legitimate value. If so, we should keep it in the data set. Otherwise we may want to remove it from the data set.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water.
