Question 737646: There is a 60% chance of rain today and a 30% chance of rain tomorrow. Assume that the event that it rains today is independent of the event that it rains tomorrow. What is the probability that there will be no rain today or tomorrow? Answer by Susan-math(40) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! E=(rains today}, F={rains tomorrow}. E and F independent P(E)=.60, P(F)=.30
you want P(not E and not F)=P(notE)*P(notF)=(.40)(.70)=(.28)
