Questions: Solution* Using the additive rule, the probabilities are: 1. P(A ∪ D) = P(A) + P(D) - P(A ∩ D) = 6/10 + 5/10 - 2/10 = 9/10 2. P(B ∪ C) = P(B) + P(C) - P(B ∩ C) = 4/10 + 5/10 - 1/10 = 8/10

Solution*

Using the additive rule, the probabilities are:
1.
P(A ∪ D) = P(A) + P(D) - P(A ∩ D) = 6/10 + 5/10 - 2/10 = 9/10
2.
P(B ∪ C) = P(B) + P(C) - P(B ∩ C) = 4/10 + 5/10 - 1/10 = 8/10

Solution Steps

To solve the given probability problems using the additive rule, we need to calculate the union of two events. The formula for the union of two events \( A \) and \( B \) is given by \( P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B) \). We will apply this formula to the provided probabilities to find the solutions.

Step 1: Calculate \( P(A \cup D) \)

Using the additive rule for probabilities, we have: \[ P(A \cup D) = P(A) + P(D) - P(A \cap D) \] Substituting the values: \[ P(A \cup D) = \frac{6}{10} + \frac{5}{10} - \frac{2}{10} = \frac{9}{10} = 0.9 \]

Step 2: Calculate \( P(B \cup C) \)

Similarly, we apply the additive rule for the events \( B \) and \( C \): \[ P(B \cup C) = P(B) + P(C) - P(B \cap C) \] Substituting the values: \[ P(B \cup C) = \frac{4}{10} + \frac{5}{10} - \frac{1}{10} = \frac{8}{10} = 0.8 \]

Final Answer

The results are: \[ P(A \cup D) = 0.9 \quad \text{and} \quad P(B \cup C) = 0.8 \] Thus, the final answers are: \[ \boxed{P(A \cup D) = 0.9} \quad \text{and} \quad \boxed{P(B \cup C) = 0.8} \]
