A study of the incoming freshman class at a university found that 60% of the students had taken AP Calculus in high school, 55% had taken AP English in high school, and 20% had taken both AP Calculus and AP English. One incoming freshman is randomly selected from the population of incoming freshman. Let: C = the selected student took AP Calculus E = the selected student took AP English What is the probability that the selected incoming freshman took AP English or AP Calculus, i.e. P( C or E)? 0.15 O 0.75 0.80 0.05 0.95

suppose that an airline has two flights each day from Toronto to Winnipeg; one scheduled at 9am and the other at 3pm. On any given day, the probability that the 9am flight departs on time is .81the probability that the 3pm flight departs on time is .68. The probability that neither depart on time is .21. Find the probability that the 3p flight does not depart on time. Find the probability that both flights depart on time. Find the probability that exactly one of the two flights depart on time.

A company that explores for oil in the ocean is considering two new sites, A and B. The exploration will take the entire year. The company estimates the probability of finding oil is 0.19 at site A and 0.03 at site B. The sites are far enough apart so that whether or not oil is found at one site is independent of it being found at the other. Round your answers to three decimal places, and use four decimal places in any interim calculations. Find the probability that the company will find oil at both sites: .006 Hint: Try making a probability table. only one of the sites: 163 neither of the sites: least one of the sites:
