SUMMARY
The probability that a woman over the age of 25 does not have a bachelor's degree is calculated as 1 minus the probability that she does have one. Based on data from the Census Bureau, there is a 0.218 probability that a randomly selected woman over 25 holds a bachelor's degree. Therefore, the probability that she does not have a bachelor's degree is 0.782. This conclusion is derived from the fundamental principles of probability regarding mutually exclusive events.
