hospital pager

problem stat help???
Jules, Vincent and Mia are doctors at the local hospital. One of their functions is on call for Hours not handle any emergency that might arise. Each carries a pager that can be activated by staff hospital. Suppose Jules meets his pager 60% of the time, Vincent answered his pager 45% of the time, and Mia answered his pager 65% of the time. If each person reacts independently, what is the probability that at least one of them could be contacted in an emergency?
I a similar question just ten or eleven minutes he answered: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index; _ylt = AufT8a4RfPUx29q3N3AZvgTsy6IX; _ylv = 3? qid = 20091015191907AA6XTdG Think about the problem this way … Suppose that the TV weather said it was 80% probability of rain. you know there was a 20% probability of no rain, right? same principle applies here: Find the probability that none of the three doctors did not answer their pages. P (no response) = (.40) * (.55) * (.35) = 0.077, or about 7.7% P (at least one) = 1.00-.077 = 0.923, or about 92.3% Answer: The probability that at least one of them could be contacted in an emergency is 92.3% Good luck in your studies, ~ Mitch
