C、12/25
D、3/5
E、4/5

答案D

解析 The requested probability is the number of residents described divided by the total number (250) of residents. The number of residents described is equal to the number of residents of age 18-39 (20 + 30 + 30 = 80) PLUS the number of residents of age ≥ 40 who support tax only (10) PLUS the number of residents of age ≥ 40 who support tax and fees (60). Therefore, the requested probability is .
Alternatively, the requested probability is 1 minus the number of residents NOT described (100)
divided by 250, or .
The correct answer is D.
