Question 1041104: An advertising company know that the probability that a given person will see the advertisement on TV in 25% and the probility that a given person will see the advertisement on newspapers is 30%. What is the probability that a given person will see the advertisement on TV or newspaper or both?
(Assume independence) Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! It is P(TV)+P(N)+P(B). These aren't mutually exclusive.
P(both), assuming independence, is the joint probability, or .25*.30=0.075
That is added to the other two probabilities to get 0.30+0.25+0.075=0.625.
