P(V) = 0.47, P(W) = 0.37, P(Vand W) = 0.01
(a) Find the probability that the computer contains either a virus or a worm or both.
(b) Find the probability that the computer does not contain a worm

Answer 1

Answer:

0.83

0.63

Step-by-step explanation:

P(V or W) = P(V) + P(W) − P(V and W)

P(V or W) = 0.47 + 0.37 − 0.01

P(V or W) = 0.83

P(not W) = 1 − P(W)

P(not W) = 1 − 0.37

P(not W) = 0.63
