Question 851451:
The probability of a snowstorm on Thanksgiving is 0.14 and the probability of a snowstorm on Christmas is 0.53 . Assuming that these two events are independent:
What is the probability of snowstorms on both Thanksgiving and Christmas?
What is the probability of a snowstorm on either Thanksgiving or Christmas (or both)?
What is the probability of a snowstorm on Thanksgiving but not on Christmas? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The probability of a snowstorm on Thanksgiving is 0.14 and the probability of a snowstorm on Christmas is 0.53 . Assuming that these two events are independent:
What is the probability of snowstorms on both Thanksgiving and Christmas?
Ans: 0.14*0.53 = 0.0742
-------------------------------------------
What is the probability of a snowstorm on either Thanksgiving or Christmas (or both)?
Ans: P(either or both) = 1-P(neither) = 1-0.86*0.47 = 0.5958
--------------------------------------------
What is the probability of a snowstorm on Thanksgiving but not on Christmas?
Ans: P(Th and not Ch) = (0.14)(0.47) = 0.0658
