In a survey of 1000 adults, respondents were asked about the cost of a college education. The respondents were classified according to whether they currently had a child in college and whether they thought the loan burden for most college students is too high, the right amount, or too little. The proportions responding in each category are shown in the probability table in Table 4.6. Suppose one respondent is chosen at random from this group.

1. What is the probability that the respondent has a child in college?
2. What is the probability that the respondent does not have a child in college?
3. What is the probability that the respondent has a child in college or thinks that the loan burden is too high or both?
