You can put this solution on YOUR website! 60% of its members made independent airline reservations last year. If two members are selected at random, what is the probability that,
a)Both made reservations last year?
Prob = 0.6*0.6 = 0.36
-----------------
b)at least one made reservations last year?
P(at least one) = 1- P(none made a reservation)
= 1- 0.4*0.4
= 1 - 0.16
=0.84
-------------
c)only one made a reservation last year?
Prob = 2C1 (0.6)(0.4)
=2*0.24
=0.48
---------
