Question

Suppose you are traveling the world and want to visit Africa this month. The probability that you go to Africa is 23%. When you get to Africa, you can relax at a bar, a pool, or in your hotel room. The probability you relax at a bar is 19%. Assuming traveling to Africa and relaxing at a bar are independent events, what is the probability that you travel to Africa and relax at a bar? Round to the nearest thousandths

Answer 1

Explanation:

Answer 2

0.044

Explanation:

The joint probability of independent events is the product of their individual probabilities.

P(bar & Africa) = P(bar)×P(Africa) = 0.19×0.23 ≈ 0.044
