The probability that you get a raise is 0.68, the probability that you get your own office is 0.41, and the probability that you get a raise and your own office is 0.24. Answer the following:
What is the probability you get a raise or your own office?
P(r OR o) = P(r)+P(o)-P(r AND o)
= 0.68+0.41-0.24 = 0.85

What is the probability you do not get your own office?
P(o') = 1-41 = 0.59
