QuestionYou can sketch yo Fifty students are participating in the school musical. Of those students 12 are on the debate team and 23 are seniors. There are twenty students who are not on the debate team and are not seniors.
If a student is selected at random, what is the probability the student is a senior or on the debate team?

Studdy Solution
Calculate the probability that a randomly selected student is either a senior or on the debate team:
$P(D \cup S) = \frac{|D \cup S|}{\text{Total number of students}} = \frac{30}{50} = 0.6$
The probability that a randomly selected student is either a senior or on the debate team is:
$$\boxed{0.6}$$
