Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected carton has a puncture or a smashed corner is 0.143

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B).

    since given that P(A) = Probability of getting puncture = 0.08

                                P(B) = probability of getting smashed corner = 0.07

                       P(A∩B) = probability of getting both puncture and smashed corner = 0.007

                    P(A∪B) = probability of getting any of them

   so P(A∪B) = 0.08 + 0.07 -0.007 = O.143
