The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the relationship between the probabilities of two events A and B, we can use the formula for the probability of the union of two events. The formula is given by: \[ P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B) \] Here, \( P(A \cup B) \) represents the probability of either event A or event B occurring, \( P(A) \) is the probability of event A occurring, \( P(B) \) is the probability of event B occurring, and \( P(A \cap B) \) is the probability of both events A and B occurring simultaneously. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Formula**: The formula for the probability of the union of two events is: \[ P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B) \] 2. **Understanding the Components**: - \( P(A) \): Probability of event A occurring. - \( P(B) \): Probability of event B occurring. - \( P(A \cap B) \): Probability of both events A and B occurring at the same time. 3. **Rearranging the Formula**: If we want to express \( P(A \cap B) \) in terms of the other probabilities, we can rearrange the formula: \[ P(A \cap B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cup B) \] 4. **Conclusion**: The value that fills in the dash in the original question is: \[ P(A \cap B) \] Therefore, the complete statement is: \[ P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B) \]
