Given that P(A) =0.52, P(B)=0.43, and P(A∩B)=0.24, find
P\(\left( \overline { A } \cap \overline { B } \right) \) -
A firm manufactures PVC pipes in three plants viz, X, Y, and Z. The daily production volumes from the three firms X, Y and Z are respectively 2000 units, 3000 units, and 5000 units. It is known from the past experience that 3% of the output from plant X, 4% from plant Y and 2% from plant Z are defective. A pipe is selected at random from a day’s total production,
(i) find the probability that the selected pipe is a defective one.
(ii) if the selected pipe is a defective, then what is the probability that it was produced by plant Y? -
The chances of A, B, and C becoming manager of a certain company are 5 : 3: 2. The probabilities that the office canteen will be improved if A, B, and C become managers are 0.4, 0.5 and 0.3 respectively. If the office canteen has been improved, what is the probability that B was appointed as the manager?

A and B are two events such that P(A) \(\neq \) 0. Find P(B/A) if (i) A is a subset of B (ii) A\(\cap \)B = \(\phi \)

A town has 2 fire engines operating independently. The probability that a fire engine is available when needed is 0.96.
(i) What is the probability that a fire engine is available when needed?
(ii) What is the probability that neither is available when needed? -
A year is selected at random. What is the probability that
(i) it contains 53 Sundays
(ii) it is a leap year which contains 53 Sundays. -
Suppose ten coins are tossed. Find the probability to get (i) exactly two heads (ii) at most two heads (iii) at least two heads

The probability of simultaneous occurrence of atleast one of two events A and B is p. if the probability that exactly one A, B occurs is q then prove that P(\(\bar { A } \)) + P(\(\bar { B } \)) = 2-2 p+q.
