`A` and `B` are two events such that `P(A)=0. 25` and `P(B)=0. 50.` The probability of both happening together is `0.14`. The probability of both `A` and `B` not happening is

A

a) `0.39`

B

b) `0.25`

C

c) `0.11`

D

d) none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a) `0.39`

Given,

`P(A) = 0.25, P(B) = 0.50, P(A nnB) = 0.14`.

Now,

Probability that neither `A` nor `B` occurs `= P(A’ nnB’) = 1-P(AuuB)`

Required probability `= 1- [P(A) + P(B) – P(AnnB)]`

`= 1- [(0.25)+(0.50) -(0.14)]`
