27. Given,

P(A)=0.3

P(B)=0.6

i. A and B are independent

P(AB)=P(A).P(B)

=0.3*0.6

=0.18

ii. P ( A and not B )

P(AB)=P(A)P(AB)

=0.30.18

=0.12

iii. P ( A or B )

P(AB)=P(A)+P(B)P(AB)

=0.3+0.60.18

=0.72

iv. P (neither A nor B )

P(AB)=P(AB)

=1P(AB)

=10.72

=0.28

26. Given,

P(A)=12

P(B)=712

P (not A or not B )= 14

P(AB)=P(AB)

P(AB)=14

1P(AB)=14

P(AB)=114

414

34

Now,

P(A).P(B)=12*712

=72434

P(A).P(B)P(AB)

Therefore, A and B are not independent.

25. Given,

P (A)=14

P (B)=12

P (AB)=18 Here,  P  (not A not B ) =P (AB)=P (AB)

1P (AB)

1 [P (A)+P (B)P (AB)]

1 [14+1218]

1 [2+418]

24. Given,

P(A)=0.3

P(B)=0.4

A and B are independent

(i) P(AB)=P(A).P(B)

=0.3*0.4=0.12

(ii) P(AB)=P(A)+P(B)P(AB)

P(AB)=0.3+0.40.12=0.58

(iii) P(A/B)=P(AB)P(B)=0.120.4=0.3

(iv) P(B/A)=P(BA)P(A)=0.120.3=0.4

23. Given,

P(A)=12

P(AB)=35

P(B)=p

(i) We know that,

when A and B are mutually exclusive

(AB)= ,P(AB)=0

P(AB)=P(A)+P(B)P(AB)

35=12+p

p=3512=6510=110

(ii) when A and B are independent

P(AB)=P(A).P(B)P(AB)=12*p

Now,

P(AB)=P(A)+P(B)P(AB)

35=12+p12p

3512=2pp2

6510=p2

p=1*210=210=15

22 . P (F)=310

P (EF)=15

P (E).P (F)=35*310

=950P (EF)

Here,  P (E).P (F)P (EF) . A and B are not independent.

21. When die is thrown, the sample space

S= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

Let,  A =the number is even = {2, 4, 6}

B =the number is red = {1, 2, 3}

P (A)=36=12P (B)=36=12AB= {2}P (AB)=16P (A).P (B)=12*12=14P (AB)

Hence,  A and B are not independent.

20. The sample space of given condition are

S={(H,1),(H,2),(H,3),(H,4),(H,5),(H,6)(T,1),(T,2),(T,3),(T,4),(T,5),(T,6)}

Let A = head appear on the coin

B = 3 on the die

A={(H,1),(H,2),(H,3),(H,4),(H,5),(H,6)}

P(A)=612=12

B={(H,3),(T,3)}

P(B)=212=16

AB={(H,3)}

i.e.,P(AB)=112

P(A).P(B)=12*16=112=P(AB)

Therefore, A and B are independent.

19. Let A ,  B and C be the respective events that the first, second and third drawn orange is good.

P (A)= Probability that first drawn orange is good= 1215

The orange is not replaced;

P (B)= Probability of getting second orange is good= 1114

Similarity, probability of getting third orange is good,  P (C)=1013

 Probability of getting all orange good= 1215*1114*1013 =4491

Therefore, probability that will approve for sale =4491
