Answer: 0.82

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A denotes the event that the car will require an oil change and B denotes the event that the car require an brake repair.

As per given , we have

P(A)=0.76,    P(B)=0.24    ,   P(A∩B)=0.18

To find : P(A∪B)

Using formula ,

[tex]P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)[/tex]

we have

[tex]P(A\cup B)=0.76+0.24-0.18=0.82[/tex]

Hence, the probability that the car will require an oil change or brake repair=0.82
