Given P(A) = 0.4 and P(A ∪ B) = 0.7 Find P(B) if A and B are mutually exclusive

उत्तर
P(A) = 0.4
P(A ∪ B) = 0.7
When A and B are mutually exclusive
P(A ∪ B) = P(A) P(B)
(i.e.,) 0.7 = 0.4 + P(B)
0.7 – 0.4 = P(B)
(i.e.,) P(B) = 0.3

Box I contains two white and three black balls. Box II contains four white and one black balls and box III contains three white ·and four black balls. A dice having three red, two yellow and one green face, is thrown to select the box. If red face turns up, we pick up the box I, if a yellow face turns up we pick up box II, otherwise, we pick up box III. Then, we draw a ball from the selected box. If the ball is drawn is white, what is the probability that the dice had turned up with a red face?
