The probability that at least one of the two events A and B occurs is 0.6. If A and B occur simultaneously with probability 0.3, evaluate `"P"(bar"A") + "P"(bar"B")`

उत्तर
We know that,
A ∪ B denotes that atleast one of the events occurs
And A ∩ B denotes that the two events occur simultaneously.
So, P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P(B) – P(A ∩ B)
⇒ 0.6 = P(A) + P(B) – 0.3
⇒ 0.9 = P(A) + P(B)
⇒ 0.9 = `1 - "P"(bar"A") + 1 - "P"(bar"B")`
⇒ `"P"(bar"A") + "P"(bar"B")` = 2 – 0.9 = 1.1
Hence, the required answer is 1.1

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 |
