Let `Aa n dB` be two events such that `P(AnnB^(prime))=0. 20 ,P(A^(prime)nnB)=0. 15 ,P(A^(prime)nnB^(prime))=0. 1 ,t h e nP(A//B)` is equal to

A

`11//14`

B

`2//11`

C

`2//7`

D

`1//7`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`P(AnnB)=P(B)-P(AnnB)=0.20`
Also `P(A'nnB'=P(B)-P(AnnB)=0.15`
`impliesP(A)+P(B)-2P(A-B)=0.35`
Now `P(A'nnB')=1-P(AuuB)`
`implies0.1=1-1 P(A)-P(B)+P(AnnB)`
`impliesP(A)+P(B)-P(AnnB)=0.9`
`impliesP(AnnB)=0.9-0.35=0.55`
`andP(A)=0.75,P(B)=0.70`
Now, ``P(A//B)=(p(AnnB))/(P(B))=(0.55)/(0.70)`
