An experiment is conducted for which the sample space is S = {a, b, c, d}. Decide if the given probability assignment is possible for this experiment. If the assignment is not possible, tell why. Use a Venn diagram to answer the question. 1) A survey of 180 families showed that 67 had a dog; 52 had a cat; 22 had a dog and a cat; 70 had neither a cat nor a dog, and in addition did not have a parakeet; had a cat, a dog, and a parakeet.
