Math Problem Statement
Solution
The problem provides a Venn diagram that displays the probabilities of three events, , , and , along with several related probability questions. I'll break it down and solve each part:
The information in the Venn diagram:
- (where is the complement of )
Now let's solve the questions:
(a)
This is the conditional probability of given , calculated as:
From the diagram:
Thus:
(b)
This is the conditional probability of given (the complement of ):
From the diagram:
Thus:
(c)
This is the conditional probability of given (the complement of ):
From the diagram:
Thus:
(d)
This is the conditional probability of given (the union of the complements of and ):
First, calculate :
- covers all regions outside of , i.e., it includes , , , and .
So, we have:
Now, calculate :
- This includes the regions and , so:
Thus:
Let me know if you'd like further details or clarifications on any part.
