उत्तर
It is given that P(A) = 0.8, P(B) = 0.5, and P(B|A) = 0.4
P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) − P(A∩B)
⇒P(A∪B)=0.8 + 0.5 − 0.32 = 0.98

Assume that the chances of a patient having a heart attack is 40%. Assuming that a meditation and yoga course reduces the risk of heart attack by 30% and prescription of certain drug reduces its chance by 25%. At a time a patient can choose any one of the two options with equal probabilities. It is given that after going through one of the two options, the patient selected at random suffers a heart attack. Find the probability that the patient followed a course of meditation and yoga. Interpret the result and state which of the above stated methods is more beneficial for the patient.
