The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze both statements provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: **Step 1: Understanding Statement 1** - Statement 1 claims that if \( P(E_1) + P(E_2) + P(E_3) = 1 \), then \( E_1, E_2, E_3 \) are exhaustive events. - **Definition of Exhaustive Events:** Events are said to be exhaustive if their union covers the entire sample space. This means \( P(E_1 \cup E_2 \cup E_3) = 1 \). **Step 2: Analyzing Statement 1** - Given \( P(E_1) + P(E_2) + P(E_3) = 1 \), it does not necessarily imply that \( E_1, E_2, E_3 \) are exhaustive. - For example, if \( P(E_1) = 0.5 \), \( P(E_2) = 0.4 \), and \( P(E_3) = 0.1 \), they add up to 1, but if there are other events in the sample space not accounted for by \( E_1, E_2, \) and \( E_3 \), then they are not exhaustive. **Conclusion for Statement 1:** - Therefore, Statement 1 is **false**. **Step 3: Understanding Statement 2** - Statement 2 states that if \( E_1, E_2, E_3 \) are exhaustive events, then \( P(E_1 \cup E_2 \cup E_3) = 1 \). - Since exhaustive events cover the entire sample space, this statement is true by definition. **Conclusion for Statement 2:** - Therefore, Statement 2 is **true**. ### Final Conclusion: - Statement 1 is false, and Statement 2 is true.
