Question

If the probability of an event A occurring is 0.629, what is the complement of A?

Answer 1

`P(A^(\prime))\text{ = 0.371}`

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the complement of A

To find this, we know that the sum of the probability of an event and its complement is 1

Thus, mathematically, we have it that:

`P(A)\text{ + P(A') = 1}`

We have this as:

`\begin{gathered} P(A^(\prime))\text{ = 1-P(A)} \\ P(A^(\prime))\text{ = 1-0.629} \\ P(A^(\prime))\text{ = 0.371} \end{gathered}`
