Question

If E and F are two disjoint events with P(E) = 0.21 and P(F) = 0.23, what is P(E ∪ FC)? (Enter answer as a decimal with at least 2 correct decimal places)

 

Expert Solution
Step 1: Introduce the given information

Given ,

P(E) = 0.21

P(F) = 0.23 

We have to find , P open parentheses E union F to the power of c close parentheses

Using formulas,

P open parentheses A intersection B to the power of c close parentheses equals P open parentheses A close parentheses minus P open parentheses A intersection B close parentheses

And,

P open parentheses A union B to the power of c close parentheses equals P open parentheses A close parentheses plus P open parentheses B to the power of c close parentheses minus P open parentheses A intersection B to the power of c close parentheses
