On any given day, if the probability of A=55.6% and the probability of B=52.3%, what is the probability of either A (OR) B occuring? I read somewhere that you ADD the two together, but then this would give me the sum of 107.9% which, of course, is obviously wrong. I'm fairly certain that the probability of A (AND) B occuring is 55.6/100 * 52.3/100=29.07%, but I am confused by the (OR) connector.

Thank you.

I was wondering since the world is undergoing Global Warming, more places are threatened. How are/will/would you prepare for hurricanes? When you go back home, will you live there again after the place is cleaned up? If you don't live in a threatened area, how will you help those attacked? Thank you so much for the answers!

As hundreds would likely guard each pyramid exterior that would contain a cap like this, how would one go about stealing it. id say they would have to melt the cap down, however they melted metals and gold in those days, after sending an army of thousands in there and killing all of egypts forces. and as you know those egyptians multiplied like rabbits so... uh... yah, there were a lot of them that had to go down before this would even be a feasible plan.

Or is it just a heated window? Do they go out for a space-walk with "bug-juice" to clean them ?

Include the following in your answer:

Which one of the basic functions (linear, quadratic, rational, or exponential) is related to the arithmetic sequence?
Which one of the basic functions (linear, quadratic, rational, or exponential) is related to the geometric sequence?
Give at least two real-life examples of a sequences or series. One example should be arithmetic, and the second should be geometric. Explain how these examples would affect you personally

It nearly always seems to rain harder for a few minutes after a fairly local lightning strike or after a particularly loud clap of thunder. Could this be due to the shockwave propogating through the air and rain mixture as a moving density wave or is it an effect on clouds holding the rain? It's something I've wondered about for years...

I believe gold is the answer, one of the heaviest metals capable of creating a core for a new planet, possibly the 10th, unnamed of planet. i dont know much about astonomy, but i believe two pyramid tops the same size made of a heavy metal could be put into orbit with both 60 degree tips used for "poles" and the rest could be left out in space with a little ice added for life forms to become. the core would be strategically plced in front of comets which would become the dirt and add to the crust until the planet got close enough to the sun for some of the ice to melt and to mix with the dust of the comets forming a new planet after a few hundred thousand years until the dust settles and the planet becomes like mars, a barren red planet, or the main colors of the lightest material on the planet, most likely ice and parts of the comets, creating the top "soil" layer. Afterwards life forms begin to take over and later it gets so crowded they have to move on to the next planet.
