gunl tg0.415m PURE IDEEvents A and B are mutually exclusive with P (4) equal to 0.315 and P (A or B) equal to 0.576. Find the following probabilities. P(not A)

Answer 1

To find P(not A), subtract the probability of A or B from 1. In this case, P(not A) is 0.424.

Step-by-step explanation:

P(A or B) is the probability of event A occurring, event B occurring, or both occurring. Since events A and B are mutually exclusive, the probability of both events occurring at the same time is 0. So, we can calculate P(not A) by subtracting P(A or B) from 1.

P(not A) = 1 - P(A or B)

Using the given values, we can substitute into the formula:

P(not A) = 1 - 0.576

P(not A) = 0.424
