उत्तर
If A and B′ are independent events then P(A′ ∪ B) = 1 – P(A) P(B′).
Explanation:
P(A′ ∪ B) = 1 – P(A ∩ B′)
= 1 – P(A) P(B′) ......(since A and B′ are independent).

A bag contains 3 yellow and 5 brown balls. Another bag contains 4 yellow and 6 brown balls. If one ball is drawn from each bag, what is the probability that, the balls are of different color?
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`
