An ASU student is taking two summer courses: MAT 275 and IEE 385.  The grades that the student will receive are assumed to be independent.  The probability that the student gets a C or better in MAT 275 is 0.75 and the probability that the student gets a C or better in IEE 385 is 0.78.  This copywritten question is part of a quiz or exam at Arizona State.  It may not be posted or reproduced without the permission of the author, Dr. L. Chattin, and Arizona State University.  X is the number of summer courses in which the student gets a C or better. F(0) = [a], F(1) = [b], F(2) = [c], F(3.5) = [d].  Choose the answers closest to yours.
