Sure, I'd be happy to help with parts **d** and **e** of your probability question. However, I'll need some additional information to provide accurate answers. Specifically, could you please provide the data or context related to:

1. **The total number of faculty members surveyed or considered.**
2. **The number of faculty members who are in favor of increasing the fees.**
3. **Any additional categories or relevant information that might pertain to part d (since the question appears to be incomplete).**

With this information, I can help you calculate the probabilities you're looking for. Here's a general idea of how the solutions would typically be approached once the data is available:

### Part d: Probability that a person selected at random is in favor of increasing the fees and is again [Incomplete]
Assuming the second part might be related to another condition (e.g., also being part of a specific department or having a particular trait), the probability can be calculated using the formula for the probability of the intersection of two independent events:

$$ P(A \text{ and } B) = P(A) \times P(B) $$

### Part e: Probability that a faculty member selected at random is against increasing the fees
This can be calculated by finding the ratio of faculty members against increasing the fees to the total number of faculty members:

$$ P(\text{Against }) = \frac{\text{Number of faculty against increasing fees}}{\text{Total number of faculty}} $$

**Example:**

If there are 200 faculty members in total, and 80 are against increasing the fees:

$$ P(\text{Against }) = \frac{80}{200} = 0.4 \text{ or } 40\% $$

Please provide the specific numbers or additional details, and I'll guide you through the calculations!
To find the probability that a person selected at random is in favor of increasing the fees, you need the total number of faculty members and the number who are in favor. Similarly, the probability that a faculty member is against increasing the fees requires knowing how many faculty members are against it out of the total. Please provide the specific numbers to calculate these probabilities.
