Answer:

0.3339 = 33.39% probability that both Dave and Mike will show up

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of independent events:

If A and B are independent events, the probability of both happening at the same time is given by:

P(A \cap B) = P(A)P(B)

In this question:

Event A: Dave shows up.

Event B: Mike shows up.

Christine knows that there is a 47% chance that Dave will not show up and a 37% chance that Mike will not show up.

This means that P(A) = 1 - 0.47 = 0.53, P(B) = 1 - 0.37 = 0.63.

a. What is the probability that both Dave and Mike will show up

P(A \cap B) = P(A)P(B) = 0.53*0.63 = 0.3339

0.3339 = 33.39% probability that both Dave and Mike will show up
