प्रश्न

If A and B are two events associated with a random experiment such that
P(A) = 0.5, P(B) = 0.3 and P (A ∩ B) = 0.2, find P (A ∪ B).

उत्तर

Given:
P(A) = 0.5, P (B) = 0.3 and P (A ∩ B) = 0.2
By addition theorem, we have:
P (A ∪ B) = P(A) + P (B)  - P (A ∩ B)
⇒ P (A ∪ B) = 0.5 + 0.3  - 0.2
                     =  0.8 - 0.2 = 0.6
Hence, P (A ∪ B) = 0.6
