Question

Two groups of Climbers (Team A and Team B attempt to climbMount Everst using different routes. The probability of Team Areaching the summit is 0.70. The probability of Team B reaching thesummit is 0.85. a. Sue calculated the probability that both teams reach thetop in the following manner: P(Team A reaches the top and Team B reaches the top)=(0.70)(0.85)=0.595 In finding the probability, Sue assumed that the two eventsare: b.Assuming that Sue was correct in part a, what is theprobability that Team A Or Team B reaches the top?
