Question

What’s the correct answer for this?

Answer 1

0.7 + 0.4 - 0.2 = 0.9

Explanation:

Let's denote the probabilities as following:

The probability that the show had animals is

P(A) = 0.7

The probability that the show aired more than 10 times is

P(B) = 0.4

The probability that the show had animals and aired more than 10 times is

P(A⋂B) = 0.2

The probability that a randomly selected show had animals or aired more than 10 times is P(A⋃B)

The correct form of addition rule to determine the probability that a randomly selected show had animals or aired more than 10 times is:

P(A⋃B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A⋂B) = 0.7 + 0.4 - 0.2 = 0.9

=> Option B is correct

Hope this helps!
