उत्तर

Two events E and F are independent. If P(E) = 0.3, P(E ∪ F) = 0.5, then P(E|F) – P(F|E) equals `1/70`.

Explanation:

Given that: E and F are independent events such that

P(E) = 0.3 and P(E ∪ F) = 0.5

P(E ∪ F) = P(E) + P(F) – P(E ∩ F)

0.5 = 0.3 + P(F) – P(E).P(F)

⇒ 0.5 – 0.3 = P(F)[1 – P(E)]

⇒ 0.2 = P(F)(1 – 0.3)

⇒ 0.2 = P(F).(0.7)

∴ P(F) = `0.2/0.7 = 2/7`

Now `"P"("E"/"F") - "P"("F"/"E") = ("P"("E" ∩ "F"))/("P"("F")) - ("P"("E" ∩ "F"))/("P"("E"))`

= `("P"("E")."P"("F"))/("P"("F")) - ("P"("E")."P"("F"))/("P"("E"))`

= P(E) – P(F)

= `3/10 - 2/7`

= `1/70`

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
Throat 70 25 95
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.


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 following table summarizes their response:

Surgery Satisfied Unsatisfied Total
Throat 70 25 95

Total 160 40 200

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


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`
