Question

according to a weather report, there is a 48% chance it will rain tomorrow. what is the probability that it will not rain tomorrow?
the probability that it will not rain tomorrow is
(type a decimal answer.)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall probability complement rule

The sum of the probability of an event and its complement is 1. Let \( P(\text{rain}) = 0.48 \) (since 48% = 0.48), and we need \( P(\text{not rain}) \).

Step2: Calculate the complement

Using the formula \( P(\text{not rain}) = 1 - P(\text{rain}) \), substitute \( P(\text{rain}) = 0.48 \). So \( P(\text{not rain}) = 1 - 0.48 = 0.52 \).

Answer:

0.52
