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`

A bag contains 3 yellow and 5 brown balls. Another bag contains 4 yellow and 6 brown balls. If one ball is drawn from each bag, what is the probability that, both the balls are of the 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`
