Prove that if E and F are independent events, then the events E and F' are also independent.

उत्तर

Two events E and F are independent if

P(E ∩ F) = P(E).P(F)

Now,

P(E ∩ F')=P(E and not F)

=P(E) - P(E ∩ F) = P(E)- P(E).P(F)                    [∵   E and F are independent events]

=P(E)[1 - P(F)] = P(E).P(F')

∴ P(E ∩ F') = P(E).P(F')

Hence, E and F' are independent events

A fair die is rolled. If face 1 turns up, a ball is drawn from Bag A. If face 2 or 3 turns up, a ball is drawn from Bag B. If face 4 or 5 or 6 turns up, a ball is drawn from Bag C. Bag A contains 3 red and 2 white balls, Bag B contains 3 red and 4 white balls and Bag C contains 4 red and 5 white balls. The die is rolled, a Bag is picked up and a ball is drawn. If the drawn ball is red; what is the probability that it is drawn from Bag B?

Two hundred patients who had either Eye surgery or Throat surgery were asked whether they were satisfied or unsatisfied regarding the result of their surgery

The follwoing table summarizes their response:

Surgery Satisfied Unsatisfied Total

Eye 90 15 105
Total 160 40 200

If one person from the 200 patients is selected at random, determine the probability that the person was satisfied given that the person had Throat surgery.
