The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given conditions about the events A and B. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Given Information**: We are given that \( P(A) \neq 0 \) and \( P(B|A) = 1 \). The notation \( P(B|A) \) represents the conditional probability of event B given that event A has occurred. 2. **Using the Formula for Conditional Probability**: The formula for conditional probability is: \[ P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} \] Since we know that \( P(B|A) = 1 \), we can substitute this into the formula: \[ 1 = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} \] 3. **Rearranging the Equation**: From the equation above, we can multiply both sides by \( P(A) \): \[ P(A \cap B) = P(A) \] 4. **Interpreting the Result**: The equation \( P(A \cap B) = P(A) \) means that the probability of both A and B occurring is equal to the probability of A occurring. This implies that whenever A occurs, B must also occur. Therefore, A is a subset of B. 5. **Conclusion**: Since \( A \) is a subset of \( B \), we can conclude: \[ A \subseteq B \] ### Final Answer: Thus, the final conclusion is that event A is a subset of event B. ---
