જો $A$ અને  $B$ બે સ્વત્રંત ઘટનાઓ છે કે  જેથી $P\,(A \cap B') = \frac{3}{{25}}$ અને $P\,(A' \cap B) = \frac{8}{{25}},$ તો  $P(A) = $

A

$\frac{1}{5}$

B

$\frac{3}{8}$

C

$\frac{2}{5}$

D

$\frac{4}{5}$

(IIT-2002)

Solution

(a) Since events are independent.

So, $P(A \cap B') = P(A) \times P(B') = \frac{3}{{25}}$

$ \Rightarrow P(A) \times \{ 1 – 2P(B)\} = \frac{3}{{25}}$ …..$(i)$

Similarly, $P(B) \times \{ 1 – P(A)\} = \frac{8}{{25}}$ …..$(ii)$

On solving $(i)$ and $(ii)$, we get $P(A) = \frac{1}{5}$ and $\frac{3}{5}$.
