The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will use the properties of independent events and the relevant probability formulas. ### Given: - \( P(A) = 0.3 \) - \( P(B) = 0.4 \) ### (i) Find \( P(A \cap B) \) (Probability of A intersection B) Since A and B are independent events, the probability of their intersection is given by: \[ P(A \cap B) = P(A) \times P(B) \] Substituting the values: \[ P(A \cap B) = 0.3 \times 0.4 = 0.12 \] ### (ii) Find \( P(A \cup B) \) (Probability of A union B) The probability of the union of two events is given by: \[ P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B) \] Substituting the values we have: \[ P(A \cup B) = 0.3 + 0.4 - 0.12 = 0.58 \] ### (iii) Find \( P(A | B) \) (Probability of A given B) The conditional probability of A given B is calculated using the formula: \[ P(A | B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)} \] Substituting the values: \[ P(A | B) = \frac{0.12}{0.4} = 0.3 \] ### (iv) Find \( P(B | A) \) (Probability of B given A) Similarly, the conditional probability of B given A is given by: \[ P(B | A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} \] Substituting the values: \[ P(B | A) = \frac{0.12}{0.3} = 0.4 \] ### Summary of Results: 1. \( P(A \cap B) = 0.12 \) 2. \( P(A \cup B) = 0.58 \) 3. \( P(A | B) = 0.3 \) 4. \( P(B | A) = 0.4 \)

To solve the problem step by step, we will use the properties of independent events and the relevant probability formulas. ### Given: - \( P(A) = 0.3 \) - \( P(B) = 0.4 \) ### (i) Find \( P(A \cap B) \) (Probability of A intersection B) ...
