If A and B are two events such that P(A B)=0.1 , and P(A B) and P(B...
If and are two events such that , and and are the roots of the equation , then the value of is :
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
D.
Step-by-step solution
and are the roots of the equation Also, $P(A \mid B)+P(B \mid A)=\frac{7}{12}\begin{aligned}
\Rightarrow & P(A \cap B)\left(\frac{1}{P(B)}+\frac{1}{P(A)}\right)=\frac{7}{12} \\
\Rightarrow & P(A)+P(B)=\frac{7}{12} \times \frac{0.12}{0.1} \\
\Rightarrow & P(A)+P(B)=0.7 \\
& \frac{P(\bar{A} \cup \bar{B})}{P(\bar{A} \cap \bar{B})}=\frac{P(\overline{A \cap B})}{P(\overline{A U B})} \\
& =\frac{1-P(A \cap B)}{1-P(A \cup B)} \\
& =\frac{1-0.1}{1-(0.7-0.1)}=\frac{0.9}{0.4}=\frac{9}{4}
\end{aligned}$$$
