Respuesta :

Answer:

24% probability that both fund A and fund B will rise in price

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

40% probability that fund A will rise in price.

If fund B rises in price, 60% probability that fund B does.

What is the probability that both fund A and fund B will rise in price

40% of A, and if A rises, 60% is B. Since the only outcome that interests us is both rising in price, we multiply these probabilities

[tex]P = 0.4*0.6 = 0.24[/tex]

24% probability that both fund A and fund B will rise in price
