In a class of $60$ students, $30$ opted for $NCC$ , $32$ opted for $NSS$ and $24$ opted for both $NCC$ and $NSS$. If one of these students is selected at random, find the probability that The student has opted neither $NCC$ nor $NSS$.
Let $A$ be the event in which the selected student has opted for $NCC$ and $B$ be the event in which the selected student has opted for $NSS$.
Total number of students $=60$
Number of students who have opted for $NCC =30$
$\therefore $ $P(A)=\frac{30}{60}=\frac{1}{2}$
Number of students who have opted for $NSS =32$
$\therefore $ $P(B)=\frac{32}{60}=\frac{8}{15}$
Number of students who have opted for both $NCC$ and $NSS = 24$
$\therefore $ $P ( A$ and $B )=\frac{24}{60}=\frac{2}{5}$
$P ($ not $A$ and not $B)$
$= P(A ^{\prime}$ and $B ^{\prime})$
$= P \left( A^{\prime} \cap B ^{\prime}\right)$
$= P ( A \cup B )^{\prime}$ $[( A^{\prime} \cap B )=( A \cup B )^{\prime}$ by De Morgan's law $)]$
$=1- P ( A \cup B )$
$=1- P ( A$ or $B )$
$=1-\frac{19}{30}$
$=\frac{11}{30}$
Thus, the probability that the selected students has neither opted for $NCC$ nor $NSS$ is $\frac{11}{30}$
If $A$ and $B$ are two events such that $P\,(A \cup B)\, + P\,(A \cap B) = \frac{7}{8}$ and $P\,(A) = 2\,P\,(B),$ then $P\,(A) = $
An experiment has $10$ equally likely outcomes. Let $\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathrm{B}$ be two non-empty events of the experiment. If $\mathrm{A}$ consists of $4$ outcomes, the number of outcomes that $B$ must have so that $A$ and $B$ are independent, is
A die is thrown. Let $A$ be the event that the number obtained is greater than $3.$ Let $B$ be the event that the number obtained is less than $5.$ Then $P\left( {A \cup B} \right)$ is
If $A$ and $B$ are two mutually exclusive events, then $P\,(A + B) = $
If $P\,(A) = 0.4,\,\,P\,(B) = x,\,\,P\,(A \cup B) = 0.7$ and the events $A$ and $B$ are mutually exclusive, then $x = $
