Answer:

The probability is 0.97

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are concerned with calculating the probability of a student spending time reading or watching TV.

To calculate this, we simply use a direct mathematical formula.

P( of spending time reading or watching tv) = P(of spending time reading) + P(spending time watching Tv) - P( of spending time watching Tv and reading)

From the question, we identify the probabilities as follows;

P(spending time reading) = 0.1

P(of spending time watching Tv) = 0.9

P(of spending time watching Tv and reading) = 0.03

Now, plugging these values, we have

P( of spending time reading or watching Tv) = 0.9 + 0.1 -0.03

= 1-0.03 = 0.97

I am simplifying radicals and I've come across one that has me a bit confused.
zhenek [66]

The sqrt of (34 m^4) is  sqrt(34) times sqrt(m^4).

The sqrt of m^4 is easy ... that's just  m^2 .

The other part is more messy.  There's not much you can do with it.

                      sqrt(34) = sqrt(17) times sqrt(2). 

That doesn't help make it any simpler.
You might as well just leave it as sqrt(34). 

Then the final, simplified form of the original expression is

                          m^2 sqrt(34)
