The probability of event X or Y is P = 0.7, or, in percentage form, the probability is 70%.

<h3>How the get the probability of event X or Y?</h3>

First, two events are mutually exclusive if these events can't happen at the same time.

This means that if happens X, with a 30% of probability, then Y can't happen.

If happens Y, with a 40% of probability, then X can't happen.

Then the probability of X or Y (the probability that one of these two events happens, not both) is just the addition of the two individual probabilities.

Then we have:

P(X or Y) = 0.3 + 0.4 = 0.7

Or, in percent form, we get:

P(X or Y) = 70%

The probability of event X or Y is just 70%.

You bike 3 miles the first day of your​ training, 3.3 miles the second​ day, 3.9 miles the third​ day, and 5.1 miles the fourth
docker41 [41]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 21.9 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

1st day = 3 mi

2nd day = 3.3 mi

3rd day = 3.9 mi

4rd day = 5.1 mi

7fh day = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the pattern

Day            1           2           3         4        5          6         7

MIles          3          3.3         3.9     5.1    7.5       12.3     21.9

Gradient          0.3         0.6       1.2    2.4    4.8      9.6

We notice that the gradient is duplicating so the miles that I bike the seventh day are 21.9.
