Draw an appropriate tree diagram, and use the multiplication principle to calculate the probabilities of all the outcomes. HINT [See Example 3.] There is a 60% chance of rain today and a 60% chance of rain tomorrow. Assume that the event that it rains today is independent of the event that it rains tomorrow. What is the probability that there will be no rain today and no rain tomorrow?

Weather Prediction There is a $20 \%$ chance of snow today and a. $20 \%$ chance of snow tomorrow. Assuming that the event that it snows today is independent of the event that it snows tomorrow, draw a tree diagram showing the probabilities of all outcomes. What is the probability that it will snow by the end of tomorrow?
