Answer:
Correct Answer: 40.(c)
Solution:
Formula:
Addition theorem of probability :
- It is given that, $P(E) \leq P(F) \Rightarrow E \subseteq F$
and $\quad P(E \cap F)>0 \Rightarrow E \subset F$
(a) occurrence of $E \Rightarrow$ occurrence of $F$
(b) occurrence of $F \Rightarrow$ occurrence of $E$
(c) non-occurrence of $E \Rightarrow$ occurrence of $F$
Hence, option (c) is not correct.
