Question 70

Multiple Choice

Find the indicated probability by using the general addition rule.
-For a person selected randomly from a certain population, events A and B are defined as follows. A = event the person is male
B = event the person is a smoker For this particular population, it is found that P(A) =0.47,P(B) =0.31\mathrm { P } ( \mathrm { A } ) = 0.47 , \mathrm { P } ( \mathrm { B } ) = 0.31 , and P(A& B) =0.12\mathrm { P } ( \mathrm { A } \& \mathrm {~B} ) = 0.12 . Find P(A\mathrm { P } ( \mathrm { A } or B) \mathrm { B } ) . Round approximations to two decimal places.
