A study showed that conditional probability of a random person carrying an umbrella given that rain was forecast is P(U|R) = 0.7200.
(a) If marginal probability that rain was forecast is P(R) = 0.0600, what is the joint probability that rain was forecast and a random person is carrying an umbrella, P(R and U)? (Hint: Use formal rule of multiplication for events that are not independent.)
(b) If the marginal probability that a random person is carrying an umbrella is P(U) = 0.0400, then determine probability that rain was forecast or a random person is carrying an umbrella, P(U or R). (Hint: Use formal rule of addition for events that are not mutually exclusive.)

Do you use probability in your profession or real life? You most likely do. For example, the chance of rain tomorrow is 27%. We hear similar probabilities in the media all the time. Similar probabilities could be found in other professions. Complete one of the following: (i) Find an example of probability involving “A or B” that is used in your chosen profession or real life. Explain the example. Are the events A and B in your example mutually exclusive?...
