For any two events $A$ and $B$ in a sample space

  • [IIT 1991]
  • A

    $P\,\left( {\frac{A}{B}} \right) \ge \frac{{P(A) + P(B) - 1}}{{P(B)}},\,\,P(B) \ne 0$ is always true

  • B

    $P\,(A \cap \bar B) = P(A) - P(A \cap B)$ does not hold

  • C

    $P\,(A \cup B) = 1 - P(\bar A)\,P(\bar B),$ if $A$ and $B$ are disjoint

  • D

    None of these
