If P(A]B) > P(A), then which of the following is correct: (A) `P(B" "|" "A)" "<" "P(B)` (B) `P(AnnB)" "P(B)` (D) `P(B" "|" "A)" "=" "P(B)`

A

`P(B//A)ltP(B)`

B

`P(AnnB)ltP(A).P(B)`

C

`P(B//A)gtP(B)`

D

`P(B//A)=P(B)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

(c)
Given
`P(A/B)gtP(A)implies(P(AnnB))/(P(B))gtP(A)`
`impliesP(AnnB)gtP(A).P(B)`
`implies(P(AnnB))/(P(A))gtP(B)impliesP(B/A)gtP(B)`
`[ :' P(B/A)=(P(AnnB))/(P(A))]`
