Explanation / Answer

(a) Probability that the advertising firm has come under $1 million in taxes

= 86/257 = 0.3346.

(b) Probability that the firm has income $1 to $20 million or more than $20 million

= (61 + 110) / 257 = 0.6654.

This is also equal to 1 - 0.3346 = 0.6654.

(c) Both special rule of addition and rule of compliment can be applied.

So the answer is either.
