[IIT 1982; RPET 1995, 2000; DCE 2000; UPSEAT 2001]
Options:
A) $ 1-P ( \frac{A}{B} ) $
B) $ 1-P ( \frac{{\bar{A}}}{B} ) $
C) $ \frac{1-P (A\cup B)}{P (\bar{B})} $
D) $ \frac{P (\bar{A})}{P (\bar{B})} $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
- $ P( \frac{\overline{A}}{\overline{B}} )=\frac{P(\overline{A}\cap \overline{B})}{P(\bar{B})}=\frac{P(\overline{A\cup B})}{P(\bar{B})}=\frac{1-P(A\cup B)}{P(\bar{B})}. $
