Respuesta :

Answer:

9% probability that Jim will be accepted at both universities

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

A 20% probability that Jim is accepted into the University X.

A 45% probability that Jim is accepted into the University Y.

What is the probability that Jim will be accepted at both universities?

It is the multiplication of both these probabilities

So there is a 0*2*0.45 = 0.09 = 9% probability that Jim will be accepted at both universities
