    Answer:0.2

    Step-by-step explanation: Let the two companies be A and B

    Pa = probability of getting a job offer from only company A

    Pb = probability of getting a job offer from only company B

    Pbb = probability of getting a job offer from both companies

    Pn = ProbabityProbability of getting a job from neither companies

    The relation could be combined using:

    Pbb+Pa+Pb+Pn=1

    Pn = 0.3

    (Pa + Pb) = probability of offer from exactly one of A or B = 0.5

    Pbb + 0.5 + 0.3 = 1

    Pbb+0.8=1

    Pbb=1-0.8

    Pbb = 0.2
