Question 919264: The probability that an open-heart operation is successful is .84. What is the probability that in two randomly selected open-heart operations at least one will be successful? Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! p(success) = .84
two randomly selected open-heart operations
P(at least one successful) = 1 - P(none) = 1 - .16^2 = 1-.0256 = .9744 0r 97.44%
