Suppose that A and B are two events for which P(A)=0.28, P(B)=0.74, and P(B|A)=0.39 Find each of the following:
A. P(A and B)= ?
B. P(A or B)= ?
C. P(A|B)= ?
Solution
P(A)=0.28
P(B)=0.74
P(B|A)=0.39
=>P(AB)/P(A)=0.39
=>P(AB)=0.39*P(A)=0.39*0.28=0.1092
A.P(A and B)=P(AUB)=P(A)+P(B)-P(AB)=0.28+0.74-0.1092=0.9108
B.P(A or B)=P(AB)=0.1092
C.P(A|B)=P(AB)/P(B)=0.1092/0.74=0.14756
