Question 657384: A and B are mutually exclusive outcomes in a probability distribution. The p(A) = .24 and the p(B) = .13. The p(A or B) then equals? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A and B are mutually exclusive outcomes in a probability distribution. The p(A) = .24 and the p(B) = .13. The p(A or B) then equals?
---------------------
P(A OR B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A AND B)
----
= 0.24 + 0.13 + 0
---
= 0.37
