Prove that P(A) = `"P"("A" ∩ "B") + "P"("A" ∩ bar"B")`
उत्तर
To prove, P(A) = `"P"("A" ∩ "B") + "P"("A" ∩ bar"B")`
R.H.S. = `"P"("A" ∩ "B") + "P"("A" ∩ bar"B")`
= `"P"("A")."P"("B") + "P"("A")."P"(bar"B")`
= `"P"("A") ["P"("B") + "P"(bar"B")]`
= P(A) . 1
= P(A)
= L.H.S.
Hence proved

In an automobile factory, certain parts are to be fixed into the chassis in a section before it moves into another section. On a given day, one of the three persons A, B, and C carries out this task. A has a 45% chance, B has a 35% chance and C has a 20% chance of doing the task.
