Q: P(A) represents the A: Se a: S Q: A: S

Answer 1

P(A) represents the probability that an adult has blue eyes.

`P(A^c)` represents the probability that an adult does not have blue eyes.

Explanation:

Given the event:

A: an adult has blue eyes

The complement of a set is another set that contains all the elements that are not in the original set.

Hence, the event
`A^c` must be:

`A^c`: an adult does not have blue eyes

So P(A) represents the probability that an adult has blue eyes and
`P(A^c)` represents the probability that an adult does not have blue eyes.
