Refer to the University of Florida study of health risks to beachgoers, Exercise 3.24 (p. 130). According to the study, 6 out of 1,000 people exposed to wet sand for a 10-minute period will acquire gastroenteritis and 7 out of 1,000 people exposed to ocean water for a 10-minute period will acquire gastroenteritis. Suppose you and a friend go to the beach. Over the next 10 minutes, you play in the wet sand while your friend swims in the ocean. What is the probability that at least one of you acquires gastroenteritis? (What assumption did you need to make in order to find the probability?)
