Question

A researcher studied the relationship between the salary of a working woman with school-aged children and the number of children she had. The results are shown in the following probability table:

  Number of Children

Salary	2 or fewer children	more than 2 children
high salary	0.13	0.02
medium salary	0.20	0.10
low salary	0.30	0.25

Let A denote the event that a working woman has 2 or fewer children, and let B denote the event that a working woman has a low salary.

What is the probability that a working woman has 2 or fewer children? a. 0.30 b. 0.55 c. 0.2 d. 0.63

What is the probability that a working woman has 2 or fewer children or has a low salary? a. 0.63 b. 0.55 c. 0.72 d. 0.88
