Calculate the probability that both bids are successful

Answer:

The probability that both contracs are successful is 0.21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

E1 = the event that the bid on the first contract is successful

E2 = the event that the bid on the second contract is successful

P(E1) = 0.3

P(E2) = 0.7

Let P(A) represent the event that both contracts are successful

P(A) = P(E1 and E2)

Since both events are independent. P(A) becomes

P(A) = = P(E1 * P(E2)

By substituton

P(A) = 0.3 * 0.7

P(A) = 0.21

Hence the probability that both contracs are successful is 0.21
