A person has undertaken a construction job. The probabilities are 0.65 that there will be strike. 0.80 that the construction job will be completed on time if there is no strike, and 0.32 that the construction job will be completed on time if there is a strike. Determine the probability that the construction job will be completed on time.

To determine the probability that the construction job will be completed on time, we can use the law of total probability. Let's denote: - \( B \): the event that there is a strike. - \( A \): the event that the construction job is completed on time. We are given the following probabilities: 1. \( P(B) = 0.65 \) (the probability that there will be a strike). ...
