Question 951183: A student is taking two courses, history and math. The probability the student will pass the history course is .57, and the probability of passing the math course is .67. The probability of passing both is .42. What is the probability of passing at least one Answer by edjones(8007) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Make a Venn diagram with 2 circles intersecting. The area of the intersection is .42 The area of the remainder of the history circle is .57-.42=.15 The area of the remainder of the math circle is .67-.42=.25
.15+.42+.25=.82
