The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \( 45P(A' | B') - 35.32 \) given the probabilities of events \( A \) and \( B \) and their intersection. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Given Probabilities:** - \( P(A) = \frac{1}{3} \) - \( P(B) = \frac{1}{4} \) - \( P(A \cap B) = \frac{1}{5} \) 2. **Calculate \( P(A \cup B) \):** Using the formula for the probability of the union of two events: \[ P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B) \] Substitute the known values: \[ P(A \cup B) = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{5} \] To perform this calculation, find a common denominator (which is 60): \[ P(A \cup B) = \frac{20}{60} + \frac{15}{60} - \frac{12}{60} = \frac{20 + 15 - 12}{60} = \frac{23}{60} \] 3. **Calculate \( P(A' \cap B') \):** Using De Morgan's Law: \[ P(A' \cap B') = P((A \cup B)') = 1 - P(A \cup B) \] Substitute the value calculated: \[ P(A' \cap B') = 1 - \frac{23}{60} = \frac{60 - 23}{60} = \frac{37}{60} \] 4. **Calculate \( P(B') \):** \[ P(B') = 1 - P(B) = 1 - \frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{4} \] 5. **Calculate \( P(A' | B') \):** Using the formula for conditional probability: \[ P(A' | B') = \frac{P(A' \cap B')}{P(B')} \] Substitute the values: \[ P(A' | B') = \frac{\frac{37}{60}}{\frac{3}{4}} = \frac{37}{60} \times \frac{4}{3} = \frac{37 \times 4}{60 \times 3} = \frac{148}{180} = \frac{37}{45} \] 6. **Calculate the final expression:** \[ 45P(A' | B') - 35.32 = 45 \times \frac{37}{45} - 35.32 = 37 - 35.32 = 1.68 \] ### Final Answer: The value of \( 45P(A' | B') - 35.32 \) is \( \boxed{1.68} \).
