उत्तर
It is given that P (A) = 0.3 and P (B) = 0.6
Also, A and B are independent events.
(i) ∴ P(A and B) = P(A) · P(B)
⇒ P(A ∩ B) = 0.3 × 0.6
P(A ∩ B) = 0.18
(ii) P(A and not B) = P(A ∩ B')
= P(A) - P(A ∩ B)
= 0.3 - 0.18
= 0.12
(iii) P(A or B) = P(A ∪ B)
= P(A) + P(B) - P(A ∩ B)
= 0.3 + 0.6 - 0.18
= 0.72
(iv) P(niether A nor B) = P(A' ∩ B')
= P((A' ∩ B'))
= 1 - P(A ∪ B)
= 1 - 0.72
= 0.28

A bag contains 3 red and 5 white balls. Two balls are drawn at random one after the other without replacement. Find the probability that both the balls are white.
Solution: Let,
A : First ball drawn is white
B : second ball drawn in white.
P(A) = `square/square`
After drawing the first ball, without replacing it into the bag a second ball is drawn from the remaining `square` balls.
∴ P(B/A) = `square/square`
∴ P(Both balls are white) = P(A ∩ B)
`= "P"(square) * "P"(square)`
`= square * square`
= `square`
