Question

The probability that austin's company uses the local shipping service for a package is 0.650. The probability that the local shipping service will deliver the package on time is 0.980. If a package is selected at random from austin's company, what is the probability that she uses the local shipping service and that the package will not be delivered on time?

Answer 1

0.013

Explanation:

First, work out the probability that the package won't be on time:

1 - 0.980 = 0.020

Then, multiply this amount with the probability the company will choose the local shipping service:

0.650 x 0.020 = 0.013
