Answer:

the correct option is d. 0.02

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following events:

x: A drought occurd

y: Water rationing.

Therefore, according to the plaster we have:

P [x] = 0.20

P [y | x] = 0.10

Now P [it is a drought and water rationing happens] =

P [x n y] = P [y | x] * P [x] = 0.10 * 0.20 = 0.02

Which means that the correct option is d. 0.02

Ax+bx-c=0 x= _/(a __)
Ulleksa [173]
Ax+bx−c=0

Step 1: Add c to both sides.

ax+bx−c+c=0+c

ax+bx=c

Step 2: Factor out variable x.

x(a+b)=c

Step 3: Divide both sides by a+b.

x(a+b)a+b=ca+b

x=ca+b
