Answer:

0.568

Step-by-step explanation:

P( e-book) = 0.28, P(On the bestseller list) = 0.4

Since event e-book and bestseller list are independent,

( Using formula, P( A OR B) = P(A) + P(B) - P( A AND B) )

P(e-book AND On the bestseller list) = P( e-book) * P(On the bestseller list)

P( e-book OR on the bestseller list) = P( e-book) + P(On the bestseller list)

- P( e-book) * P(On the bestseller list)

= 0.28 + 0.4 - 0.28 * 0.4

= 0.568

Every day, Susan exercises in the morning. She travels a total of 4 miles. She starts off with a half-hour walk at a pace of 2 m
Anna [14]

Let's assume

the number of hours Susan jogs at the increased speed is 't' hours

Since, increased speed is 6 miles per hour

after 't' hours , she travles with increased speed is 6*t miles

She starts off with a half-hour walk at a pace of 2 miles per hour

so, she travels distance

=0.5*2 miles

=1 miles

She travels a total of 4 miles

total distance is

=6t+1

now, we can set them equal

6t+1=4

now, we can solve for t

Subtract both sides by 1

6t+1-1=4-1

6t=3

Divide both sides by 6

we get

t=0.5

so, the number of hours Susan jogs at the increased speed is 0.5 hrs.........Answer
