easy

Let Ajay will not appear in JEE exam with probability $\mathrm{p}=\frac{2}{7}$, while both Ajay and Vijay will appear in the exam with probability $\mathrm{q}=\frac{1}{5}$. Then the probability, that Ajay will appear in the exam and Vijay will not appear is :

A

 $\frac{9}{35}$

B

$\frac{18}{35}$

C

 $\frac{24}{35}$

D

$\frac{3}{35}$

(JEE MAIN-2024)

Solution

$ \mathrm{P}(\overline{\mathrm{A}})=\frac{2}{7}=\mathrm{p} $

$ \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A} \cap \mathrm{V})=\frac{1}{5}=\mathrm{q} $

$ \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A})=\frac{5}{7} $

$ \text { Ans. } \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A} \cap \overline{\mathrm{V}})=\frac{18}{35}$
