The probability that the first horse wins is 2/7. The probability that the second horse wins is 3/10. Since the events that the first horse wins and the second horse wins are shared exclusive, the probability that either the first horse or the second horse will win is :

2/7 + 3/10= 41/70

Hope this is correct.

x = y + (4y+7)

x = 5y + 7

padilas [110]

Answer:
