Let A and B be two events. Then which of the following statements are TRUE? (A) $P(B|A) =\frac{P(A∩B)}{P(A)}$, provided $P(A) ≠ 0$ Choose the correct answer from the options given below: |
(A), (B) and (C) only (B), (C) and (D) only (A) and (D) only (C) and (D) only |
(A) and (D) only |
The correct answer is Option (3) → (A) and (D) only ** (A) $P(B|A)=\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)}$, correct definition of conditional probability. (B) $P(B')=1-P(B)$, hence false. (C) $P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)$, not $+$, so false. (D) $P(A\cap B)=P(A)\cdot P(B)$ for independent events, true. Correct statements: (A) and (D) |
