Answer:

The probability that the pirate misses the captain's ship but the captain hits = 0.514

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event that the captain hits the pirate ship

The probability of the captain hitting the pirate ship, P(A) = 3/5

Let B be the event that the pirate hits the captain's ship

The probability of the pirate hitting the captain's ship P(B) = 1/7

The probability of the pirate missing the captain's ship, P'(B) = 1 - P(B)

P'(B) = 1 - 1/7 = 6/7

The probability that the pirate misses the captain's ship but the captain hits = P(A) * P(B) = 3/5 * 6/7

= 0.514
