B. 0.70
C. 0.30
D. 0.80

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
P(A∪B)=0.35+0.55-0.20=0.70. P(A'∩B') = 1 - 0.70 = 0.30.

Question #3 Report Error
A bag contains 3 red and 2 blue balls. Two balls are drawn at random without replacement. The probability that both are red is:
A. 3/10
B. 3/5
C. 1/2
D. 9/25

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
P(both red) = (3/5) × (2/4) = 6/20 = 3/10. Without replacement, the probability changes after the first draw, requiring multiplication of conditional probabilities.
