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`

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.

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:

| Eye | 90 | 15 | 105 |

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`
