If M and N are any two events, the probability that at least one of them occurs is ______.
पर्याय
P(M) + P(N) – 2P(M ∩ N)
P(M) + P(N) – P(M ∩ N)
P(M) + P(N) + P(M ∩ N)
P(M) + P(N) + 2P(M ∩ N)
उत्तर
If M and N are any two events, the probability that at least one of them occurs is P(M) + P(N) – P(M ∩ N).
Explanation:
If M and N are any two events, then
P(M ∪ N) = P(M) + P(N) – P(M ∩ N)

One urn contains two black balls (labelled B1 and B2) and one white ball. A second urn contains one black ball and two white balls (labelled W1 and W2). Suppose the following experiment is performed. One of the two urns is chosen at random. Next a ball is randomly chosen from the urn. Then a second ball is chosen at random from the same urn without replacing the first ball. Write the sample space showing all possible outcomes
