Question seem incorrect because 60%,50% and 20% sum up to more than a 100% therefore we've made a little correction

Answer:

0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability = number of favorable outcomes/number of outcomes

Given that 30% are entertained by reading books

50% are entertained by watching TV

20% are entertained by reading books and watching TV

The probability that a person will be entertained by books or TV =

30/100+50/100= 3/10+5/10

=8/10

=0.8

What is f(-2)?<br> 1 point<br> f(x)=x^2-3x-8
Inessa [10]
F(x) = x^2 - 3x - 8
f(-2) = (-2)^2 - 3 (-2) - 8
f(-2) = 4 - 3 (-2) - 8
f(-2) = 4 + 6 - 8
f(-2) = 10 - 8
f(-2) = 2 ✅
