Explanation:

Step1: Recall probability formula for mutually - exclusive events

For mutually exclusive events \(U\) and \(V\), \(P(U\ or\ V)=P(U)+P(V)\).

Step2: Substitute given values

We know that \(P(U) = 0.48\) and \(P(V)=0.25\), so \(P(U\ or\ V)=0.48 + 0.25\).

Step3: Calculate the result

\(0.48+0.25 = 0.73\).

Answer:

A. 0.73
