Mid Year Exam

For events \(A\) and \(B\), it is given that \(\mathrm{P}\left( A \right)=0.25\) and \(\mathrm{P}\left( A'\cap B' \right)=0.15\). It is also given that \(A\) and \(B\) are independent.

  1. Find \(\mathrm{P}\left( B' \right)\).[2]

For a third event \(C\), it is given that \(B\) and \(C\) are mutually exclusive, and that whenever event \(C\) occurs, event \(A\) occurs.

  1. Find \(\mathrm{P}\left( A\cap B' \right)\). Hence state an inequality satisfied by \(\mathrm{P}\left( C \right)\).[2]
