Question
A and B are two events such that P (A) = 0.54, P (B) = 0.69 and P (A ∩ B) = 0.35. Find
P (A ∩ \[\bar{ B } \] )
Solution
Given:
P (A) = 0.54, P (B) = 0.69 and P (A ∩ B) = 0.35
\[P\left( A \cap \bar{B} \right) = P\left( A \right) - P\left( A \cap B \right)\]
= 0.54 - 0.35
= 0.19

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
