The correct Answer is:
To find \( P(\bar{A} | \bar{B}) \), we can use the definition of conditional probability: \[ P(\bar{A} | \bar{B}) = \frac{P(\bar{A} \cap \bar{B})}{P(\bar{B})} \] ### Step 1: Identify the components We know that: - \( P(A) > 0 \) - \( P(B) \neq 1 \) ### Step 2: Express \( P(\bar{A} \cap \bar{B}) \) Using the property of complements, we can express \( P(\bar{A} \cap \bar{B}) \) in terms of unions: \[ P(\bar{A} \cap \bar{B}) = P(\overline{A \cup B}) \] This is because the complement of the union of two events is the intersection of their complements. ### Step 3: Use the complement rule Using the complement rule, we have: \[ P(\overline{A \cup B}) = 1 - P(A \cup B) \] ### Step 4: Substitute back into the conditional probability formula Now, substituting this back into our expression for conditional probability, we get: \[ P(\bar{A} | \bar{B}) = \frac{1 - P(A \cup B)}{P(\bar{B})} \] ### Step 5: Express \( P(\bar{B}) \) Since \( P(B) \neq 1 \), we can express \( P(\bar{B}) \) as: \[ P(\bar{B}) = 1 - P(B) \] ### Final Expression Thus, we can write: \[ P(\bar{A} | \bar{B}) = \frac{1 - P(A \cup B)}{1 - P(B)} \] ### Conclusion This is the final expression for \( P(\bar{A} | \bar{B}) \). ---
