Answer:

Sample space = (AA, AN, AD, NA, NN, ND, DA, DN, DD) ;

0.556

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Possible outcome of each policy statement = (A, N, D)

Number of statements = 2

Sample space = 3² = 9

Sample space = (AA, AN, AD, NA, NN, ND, DA, DN, DD)

Probability that a person agrees with atleast one of the 2 policy statements :

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Required outcome = (AA, AN, AD, NA, DA) = 5

HENCE, P(person agrees with atleast one of the 2 policy statements) = 5 /9 = 0.556
