Question

(b) compute the following.

\\p(a) + p(b) - p(a \text{ and } b) = \\

(c) select the answer that makes the equation true.

\\p(a) + p(b) - p(a \text{ and } b) = p(a \text{ or } b)\\

Explanation:

Identify the general addition rule for probability

$$ P(A \text{ or } B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \text{ and } B) $$

Match the expression in part (b)

$$ P(A) + P(B) - P(A \text{ and } B) = P(A \text{ or } B) $$

Match the expression in part (c)

$$ P(A) + P(B) - P(A \text{ and } B) = P(A \text{ or } B) $$

Answer:

Question 1

\(P(A) + P(B) - P(A \text{ and } B) =\) <blank>\(P(A \text{ or } B)\)</blank>

Question 2

Select the answer that makes the equation true.
\(P(A) + P(B) - P(A \text{ and } B) =\) <blank>\(P(A \text{ or } B)\)</blank>
