Answer:

A. 0.42

B. 0.12

C. 0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The probability that they make the right decision on the first try

First person = 60%

Second person = 70%

= 60% * 70%

= 0.42

B. Probability that they make wrong decision

= Wrong decision from first person * wrong decision from second person

Wrong decision = 1- right decision

= 1-0.60 * 1-0.70

= 0.40x0.30

= 0.12

3. Probability they delay decision

= 0.60(1-0.60)+0.70(1-0.70)

= 0.60x0.40 + 0.70x0.30

= 0.24+ 0.21

= 0.45
