Vedclass · Answer

Two events $A$ and $B$ are said to be independent, if $P(A B)=P(A) 	imes P(B)$

Consider the result given in alternative $B$.

$\mathrm{P}\left(\mathrm{A} \mathrm{B}^{\prime}ight)=[1-\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A})][1-\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})]$

$\Rightarrow \mathrm{P}\left(\mathrm{A}^{\prime} \cap \mathrm{B}^{\prime}ight)=1-\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A})-\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})+\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A}) . \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})$

$\Rightarrow 1-\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A} \cup \mathrm{B})=1-\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A})-\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})+\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A}) \cdot \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})$

$\Rightarrow \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A} \cup \mathrm{B})=\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A})+\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})-\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A}) \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})$

$\Rightarrow \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A})+\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})-\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{AB})=\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A})+\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})-\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A}) \cdot \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})$

$\Rightarrow \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{AB})=\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A}). \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})$

This implies that $\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathrm{B}$ are independent, if $\mathrm{P}\left(\mathrm{AB}^{\prime}ight)=[1-\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A})][1-\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})]$

Distracter Rationale

$A.$  Let $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A})=\mathrm{m}, \,\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})=\mathrm{n}, \,0<\mathrm{m}, \,\mathrm{n}<1$

$A$ and $B$ are mutually exclusive.

$	herefore \mathrm{A} \cap \mathrm{B}=\phi$

$\Rightarrow \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{AB})=0$

However, $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A}) . \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})=\mathrm{mn} 
eq 0$

$	herefore \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A}) \cdot \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B}) 
eq \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{AB})$

$C.$ Let $A:$ Event of getting an odd number on throw of a die $=\{1,3,5\}$

$\Rightarrow P(A)=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}$

$B:$  Event of getting an even number on throw of a die $=\{2,4,6\}$

$P(B)=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}$

Here, $A \cap B=\phi$

$\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{AB})=0$

$P(A) \cdot P(B)=\frac{1}{4} 
eq 0$

$\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A}) .\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B}) 
eq \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{AB})$

$D.$ From the above example, it can be seen that, $P(A)+P(B)=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}=1$

However, it cannot be inferred that $\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathrm{B}$ are independent.

Thus, the correct answer is $B$.

माना दो घटनायें $A$ व $B$ इस प्रकार हैं कि $P\,(A) = 0.3$ एवं $P\,(A \cup B) = 0.8$ यदि $A$ व $B$ स्वतंत्र घटनायें हैं तो $P(B)$ का मान है

यदि $P(A) = \frac{1}{2},\,\,P(B) = \frac{1}{3}$ एवं $P(A \cap B) = \frac{7}{{12}},$ तो $P\,(A' \cap B')$ का मान है
