Analyze decisions and strategies with probability concepts in applied settings.
Find the overall probability that a strategy succeeds
Problem
Both independent shots must succeed, so multiply the two \(0.70\) success probabilities.
Big Picture
What this problem is really about
The strategy’s success event requires both independent stages, not merely one of them. We’ll define the joint event, verify that the first result does not change the second-stage rate, apply the multiplication rule along the success path, and convert the resulting probability between decimal and percent forms.
