A. Inflation is the rate of increase in prices over a given period of time. Suppose that in 2022 the probability that increase in inflation is 0.6. Given that inflation rate increases in 2022 the probability that it will increase in 2023 is 0.3. Find the probability that it increases in both years. B. Tim has an instructor who gives a midterm exam and final exam. The probability that a student passes the midterm exam is 0.6. Given that a student fails the midterm exam, the probability that the student passes the final exam is 0.8. What is the probability that Tim fails the midterm and passes the final?
