उत्तर
As `P (A cap B) = 1/8 = 1/4 xx 1/2 = P (A) xx P (B)`
⇒ A and B are independent.
⇒ Ac and Bc are also independent.
⇒ P (Ac ∩ Bc) = P (Ac) P (Bc)
⇒ P (Ac ∩ Bc) = (1 - P(A)) (1 - P (B))
`= (1 - 1/4) (1 - 1/2) = 3/4 xx 1/2 = 3/8`
(∴ P (Ac) = 1 - P (A) & P(Bc) = 1 - P (B))

Bag A contains 3 red and 2 white balls and bag B contains 2 red and 5 white balls. A bag is selected at random, a ball is drawn and put into the other bag, and then a ball is drawn from that bag. Find the probability that both the balls drawn are of same 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`
