The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "If E is any event associated with an experiment, then...", we need to analyze the properties of probabilities associated with events. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Probability**: - Probability is a measure of the likelihood that an event will occur. It ranges from 0 to 1, where 0 indicates that the event will not occur, and 1 indicates that the event is certain to occur. 2. **Identifying Event E**: - The event E can be any event associated with an experiment. It could either be a sure event (which will definitely happen) or an impossible event (which will definitely not happen). 3. **Analyzing the Probability of Event E**: - If E is a sure event, then the probability \( P(E) = 1 \). - If E is an impossible event, then the probability \( P(E) = 0 \). - If E is a possible event (neither sure nor impossible), the probability \( P(E) \) can take any value between 0 and 1. 4. **Evaluating the Options**: - **Option 1**: Probability less than 0. (Incorrect, as probabilities cannot be negative) - **Option 2**: Probability greater than 1. (Incorrect, as probabilities cannot exceed 1) - **Option 3**: Probability of E is greater than or equal to 0. (Partially correct, but it could also be greater than 1, which is not possible) - **Option 4**: Probability of E is between 0 and 1. (Correct, as it encompasses all possible values for the probability of event E) 5. **Conclusion**: - The correct answer is **Option 4**: Probability of E is between 0 and 1.
