Question 1164442: Amy is trying to purchase concert tickets online for two of her favorite bands, the Leather Recliners and Double Latte No Foam. She estimates that her probability of being able to get tickets for the
Leather Recliners concert is .14, the probability of being able to get tickets for the Double Latte No Foam
concert is .23, and the probability of being able to get tickets for both concerts is .026. What is the probability that she will be able to get tickets for at least one of the two concerts?

Use the universal probability formula


    P(at least one of two) = P(one) + P(another) - P(both).


The term "universal formula" means that it is ALWAYS true.


Now, as you obtained the formula from me, substitute the given values in it and calculate.

Happy calculations (!)
