My daughter is taking a summer Geometry class and we have no clue as to how to answer her homework. Could someone please help us by explaining how to solve the problem without giving us the answer?
Question:
While preparing for the Exam P, Poirot hopes to get a large inheritance and catch a quark in his quark tank - all before June 1.
The probability that he will pass Exam P is 0.8. The probability that he will pass Exam P or get the inheritance is 0.86. The probability that he will pass Exam P or get a quark is 0.82. The probability that he will get the inheritance and catch a quark is 0.03.
the event that he will pass the exam is independant of the event that he will get the inheritance and the event that he will catch a quark.
Find the probability that Poirot will get the inheritance or catch a quark before June 1.
Thank you in advance for your help!
