Question 373287: 1. Andrew is 55 and the probability that he will be alive in 10 years is 0.72. Ellen is 35 and the probability that she will be alive in 10 years is 0.92. Assuming that the life span of one will have no effect on the life span of the other, what is the probability they will both be alive in 10 years? Answer by edjones(8007) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! P(AnB)=P(A)*P(B) for independent events.
.72*.92=.6624 the probability they will both be alive in 10 years.
