The correct Answer is:
To find \( P(A \cap B) \) given \( P(A) = 0.5 \), \( P(B) = 0.35 \), and \( P(A \cup B) = 0.7 \), we can use the formula for the probability of the union of two events: \[ P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B) \] ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Write down the formula for the union of two events:** \[ P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B) \] 2. **Substitute the known values into the formula:** \[ 0.7 = 0.5 + 0.35 - P(A \cap B) \] 3. **Calculate \( 0.5 + 0.35 \):** \[ 0.5 + 0.35 = 0.85 \] So, the equation now looks like: \[ 0.7 = 0.85 - P(A \cap B) \] 4. **Rearrange the equation to solve for \( P(A \cap B) \):** \[ P(A \cap B) = 0.85 - 0.7 \] 5. **Perform the subtraction:** \[ P(A \cap B) = 0.15 \] ### Final Answer: \[ P(A \cap B) = 0.15 \]
