If necessary consult a list of formulas PAB PAB Suppose that
(If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)
P(A?B=
P(A?B)=
| |
Solution
Note that
P(A) = 1 - P(A--)
P(A) = 1 - 0.50
P(A) = 0.50
As for independent events,
P(A and B) = P(A) P(B)
Then
P(A and B) = 0.50 (0.40) = 0.20 [ANSWER]
******************************
Meanwhile,
P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)
= 0.50 + 0.40 - 0.20
= 0.70 [ANSWER]
