Question 1165866
.
The city finds empirically that the probability that an automobile going through the intersection 
of 5th and Main will run a red light sometime during a given day is 8.9%, and the probability 
that an automobile going through the intersection of 7th and Polk will run a red light sometime 
during a given day is 11.7%. Suppose a car is picked at random at 5th and Main on a given day 
and another at random at 7th and Polk. Write each probability as a percentage rounded to one decimal place.

What is the probability that the car will not run a red light at 5th and Main?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



This probability is      P = 1 - 0.089 = 0.911.    


Rounded to one decimal place, &nbsp;it is &nbsp;&nbsp;0.9. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<U>ANSWER</U>
