For events \(\mathrm{A}\) and \(\mathrm{B}\), it is given that \(\mathrm{P}(A)=0.7\), \(\mathrm{P}(B)=0.6\) and \(\mathrm{P}(A\left| B' \right.)=0.8\). Find

  1. \(\mathrm{P}(A\cap B')\),[2]
  2. \(\mathrm{P}(A\cup B)\),[2]
  3. \(\mathrm{P}(B'\left| A \right.)\),[2]

For a third event \(C\), it is given that \(\mathrm{P}(C)=0.5\) and that \(A\) and \(C\) are independent.

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