If A and B are mutually exclusive events...

If A and B are mutually exclusive events, then

A

`P(A) le P(barB)`

B

`P(A) gt P(B)`

C

`P(B) le P(barA)`

D

`P(A) gt P(B)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, C
Given that A and B are mutually exclusive events.
`therefore A nn B = phi`
implies `A sube barB and B sube barA`
`implies P(A) le P (barB) and P(B) le P(barA)`
