What does P(W) represent?
a. P(W) denotes the probability of driver being intoxicated
b. P(W) denotes the probability of a driver passing through the sobriety checkpoint y
c. P(w) denotes the probability of screening a driver and finding that he or she is not intoxicated

Answer:
c. P(w) denotes the probability of screening a driver and finding that he or she is not intoxicated
Step-by-step explanation:
P(W¯¯) denotes the probability that a given person is not intoxicated when screened
because P(W¯¯) is the probability all possible outcomes that are not a part of W
P(W¯¯) = 1 – P(W)
P(W¯¯) = 1 – 0.00744
P(W¯¯) = 0.99256
