Question
If a probability of a player winning a particular tennis match is 0.72. What is the probability of the player losing the match?
Solution
Probability of a player winning a tennis match = 0.72
P(E) = 0.72
Probability of a player loosing the match be P(E)’
But P(E) + P(E)’ = 1
0.72 + P(E)’ = 1
P(E)’ = 1 – 0.72
= 0.28
Probability of the player loosing the match = 0.28
