The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will use the given probabilities of events A and B, as well as their intersection. Given: - \( P(A) = 0.7 \) - \( P(B) = 0.5 \) - \( P(A \cap B) = 0.3 \) We need to find the following probabilities: ### (i) \( P(A \cup B) \) Using the formula for the union of two events: \[ P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B) \] Substituting the values: \[ P(A \cup B) = 0.7 + 0.5 - 0.3 \] \[ P(A \cup B) = 1.2 - 0.3 = 0.9 \] ### (ii) \( P(A | B) \) Using the formula for conditional probability: \[ P(A | B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)} \] Substituting the values: \[ P(A | B) = \frac{0.3}{0.5} \] \[ P(A | B) = 0.6 \] ### (iii) \( P(\bar{A} | \bar{B}) \) Using the formula for conditional probability: \[ P(\bar{A} | \bar{B}) = \frac{P(\bar{A} \cap \bar{B})}{P(\bar{B})} \] First, we need to find \( P(\bar{A} \cap \bar{B}) \): \[ P(\bar{A} \cap \bar{B}) = 1 - P(A \cup B) \] Substituting the value we found for \( P(A \cup B) \): \[ P(\bar{A} \cap \bar{B}) = 1 - 0.9 = 0.1 \] Now, we find \( P(\bar{B}) \): \[ P(\bar{B}) = 1 - P(B) = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5 \] Now substituting these values into the conditional probability: \[ P(\bar{A} | \bar{B}) = \frac{0.1}{0.5} = 0.2 \] ### (iv) \( P(\bar{B} | \bar{A}) \) Using the formula for conditional probability: \[ P(\bar{B} | \bar{A}) = \frac{P(\bar{B} \cap \bar{A})}{P(\bar{A})} \] First, we need to find \( P(\bar{B} \cap \bar{A}) \): \[ P(\bar{B} \cap \bar{A}) = 1 - P(A \cup B) = 0.1 \quad \text{(as calculated previously)} \] Now, we find \( P(\bar{A}) \): \[ P(\bar{A}) = 1 - P(A) = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3 \] Now substituting these values into the conditional probability: \[ P(\bar{B} | \bar{A}) = \frac{0.1}{0.3} = \frac{1}{3} \approx 0.333 \] ### Summary of Results: 1. \( P(A \cup B) = 0.9 \) 2. \( P(A | B) = 0.6 \) 3. \( P(\bar{A} | \bar{B}) = 0.2 \) 4. \( P(\bar{B} | \bar{A}) = \frac{1}{3} \)

To solve the problem step by step, we will use the given probabilities of events A and B, as well as their intersection. Given: - \( P(A) = 0.7 \) - \( P(B) = 0.5 \) - \( P(A \cap B) = 0.3 \) We need to find the following probabilities: ...
