उत्तर

E = {1, 3, 5}, F = {2, 3}, E ∩ F = {3}

P(E) = `3/6`, P(F) = `2/6`, P(E ∩ F) = `1/6`

P(E | F) = `(P(E ∩ F))/(P(F))`

`= (1/6)/(2/6)`

`= 1/2`

P(F | E) = `(P(E ∩ F))/(P(E))`

`= (1/6)/(3/6)`

`= 1/3`

Read the following passage:

Recent studies suggest the roughly 12% of the world population is left-handed.

Depending upon the parents, the chances of having a left-handed child are as follows:

A :  When both father and mother are left-handed:
Chances of left-handed child is 24%.
B :  When father is right-handed and mother is left-handed:
Chances of left-handed child is 22%.
C :  When father is left-handed and mother is right-handed:
Chances of left-handed child is 17%.
D :  When both father and mother are right-handed:
Chances of left-handed child is 9%.

Assuming that P(A) = P(B) = P(C) = P(D) = `1/4` and L denotes the event that child is left-handed.

Based on the above information, answer the following questions:

  1. Find `P(L/C)` (1)
  2. Find `P(overlineL/A)` (1)
  3. (a) Find `P(A/L)` (2)
    OR
    (b) Find the probability that a randomly selected child is left-handed given that exactly one of the parents is left-handed. (2)

If A and B are two independent events such that P(A) = `1/3` and P(B) = `1/4`, then `P(B^'/A)` is ______.
