  • Probabilities and Set Theory

    If a particular event is a disjoint union of some element of F, call it A, and another element of F with measure zero, call it N, then the probability of A union N, equals P(A) + P(N) = P(A), since P(N) = 0.

  • Probability

    From the condition, we have P(R) = 0.4 P(E) = 0.6 P(R union E) = 0.8 Then we have P(R intersect E) = P(R) + P(E) - P(R union E) = 0.4 + 0.6 - 0.8 = 0.2 Thus the probability to pass both is 0.2 This provides an example of using probabilities to determine
