The probability that you will catch the 7:00 AM bus is 30%. Thus,
P (caught 7:00AM bus) = 3/10
Therefore, the probability that you will miss the 7:00 AM bus is
P’ (caught 7:00AM bus) or P (missed 7:00AM bus) = 1 - 3/10=10/10 - 3/10 = 7/10
The probability of you reaching the university on time if you catch the bus is 100%. In other words,
P (on time when caught the bus) = 1
And the probability that you will be late for the university if you miss the bus is 60%. Thus,
P (late when missed the bus) = 6/10
P (you are late) = P (missed 7:00AM bus) x P (late when missed the bus)
= 7/10 x 6/10
= 42/100
= 21/50
Thus, the chances of you being late for the university are 42%.
