Probability of solving specific problem independently by $A$ and $B$ are $\frac{1}{2}$ and $\frac{1}{3}$ respectively. If both try to solve the problem independently, find the probability that the problem is solved.
Probability of solving the problem by $\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A})=\frac{1}{2}$
Probability of solving the problem by $\mathrm{B}, \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})=\frac{1}{3}$
since the problem is solved independently by $A$ and $B$,
$\therefore $ $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{AB})=\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A}) \cdot \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{3}=\frac{1}{6}$
$P(A^{\prime})=1-P(A)=1-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}$
$P(B^{\prime})=1-P(B)=1-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{2}{3}$
Probability that the problem is solved $=\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A} \cup \mathrm{B})$
$=\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A})+\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})-\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{AB})$
$=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{6}$
$=\frac{4}{6}$
$=\frac{2}{3}$
If $A$ and $B$ are two events of a random experiment, $P\,(A) = 0.25$, $P\,(B) = 0.5$ and $P\,(A \cap B) = 0.15,$ then $P\,(A \cap \bar B) = $
In class $XI$ of a school $40\%$ of the students study Mathematics and $30 \%$ study Biology. $10 \%$ of the class study both Mathematics and Biology. If a student is selected at random from the class, find the probability that he will be studying Mathematics or Biology.
The probabilities of three events $A , B$ and $C$ are given by $P ( A )=0.6, P ( B )=0.4$ and $P ( C )=0.5$ If $P ( A \cup B )=0.8, P ( A \cap C )=0.3, P ( A \cap B \cap$ $C)=0.2, P(B \cap C)=\beta$ and $P(A \cup B \cup C)=\alpha$ where $0.85 \leq \alpha \leq 0.95,$ then $\beta$ lies in the interval
Let ${E_1},{E_2},{E_3}$ be three arbitrary events of a sample space $S$. Consider the following statements which of the following statements are correct
One card is drawn at random from a well shuffled deck of $52$ cards. In which of the following cases are the events $\mathrm{E}$ and $\mathrm{F}$ independent ?
$E:$ ' the card drawn is a king and queen '
$F:$ ' the card drawn is a queen or jack '
