Answer:

(b)0.56

(c)0.38

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)The tree diagram is attached.

P(Ben Fails)=1-0.8=0.2

P(Tom Fails)=1-0.7=0.3

(b)Probability that  both will pass their driving test.

P(both will pass)=0.8 X 0.7 =0.56

(c)Probability that  only one of them will pass their  driving test.

P(Tom Bass, Ben Fails OR Ben Pass, Tom Fails)

=(0.7 X 0.2)+(0.8 X 0.3)

=0.14+0.24

=0.38

Following are the solution to the given points:

  • For point a please find the attached file.
  • The likelihood of both passing their driving tests is [tex]\bold{p=0.8\times 0.7=0.56}[/tex] Since both they pass their driving test at the same time, so we multiply the chance of each one, yielding a result of "56%".
  • Ben succeeds but Tom fails, or Ben fails but Tom pass. So, the probability is [tex]\bold{p=0.8 \times 0.3 +0.2 \times 0.7=0.24+0.14=0.38}[/tex] and the answer is "38%".
