Answer 1

a) 0.06

b) 0.3

c) 0.44

Explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

A and B are two independent events.

P(A) = 0.3

P(B) = 0.2

a) P(A intersect ​B)

`P(A\cap B) = P(A)* P(B) = 0.3* 0.2 = 0.06`

b) P(A|B)

`P(A|B) = (P(A\cap B))/(P(B)) = (0.06)/(0.2) = 0.3`

c) P(A union ​B)

`P(A\cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A\cap B)\\P(A\cup B) = 0.3 + 0.2 - 0.06 = 0.44`
