The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find \( P(\bar{A} \cap B) \), which is the probability that event B occurs while event A does not occur. We can use the formula for the intersection of events and the properties of probability. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Given Information**: - \( P(A) = 0.3 \) - \( P(B) = 0.2 \) - \( P(A \cap B) = 0.1 \) 2. **Use the Formula for the Probability of the Complement**: We know that: \[ P(B) = P(A \cap B) + P(\bar{A} \cap B) \] This means that the probability of B can be expressed as the sum of the probability of A and B occurring together and the probability of B occurring without A. 3. **Rearrange the Formula**: To find \( P(\bar{A} \cap B) \), we can rearrange the formula: \[ P(\bar{A} \cap B) = P(B) - P(A \cap B) \] 4. **Substitute the Known Values**: Now, substitute the values we have: \[ P(\bar{A} \cap B) = 0.2 - 0.1 \] 5. **Calculate the Result**: \[ P(\bar{A} \cap B) = 0.1 \] ### Final Answer: Thus, the probability \( P(\bar{A} \cap B) = 0.1 \). ---
