Chapter 12.2, Problem 91E

Shoulder Injuries Among a large group of patients recovering from shoulder injuries, it is found that 22 % visit both a physical therapist and a chiropractor, whereas 12 % visit neither of these. The probability that a patient visits a chiropractor exceeds by 0.14 the probability that a patient visits a physical therapist. Determine the probability that a randomly chosen member of this group visits a physical therapist. Choose one of the following. (Hint: Use the union rule for probability, and let x = P ( patient visits a phyiscal therapist) .) Source: Society of Actuaries.
