If events A and B are mutually exclusive, P(A or B) = 0.5, and P(B) = 0.3; then what is P(A)?

Answer:

P(A) = 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

P(A) = P(a) + P(A \cap B)

In which P(a) is the probability of a but not b and P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B.

By the same logic, we have that:

P(B) = P(b) + P(A \cap B)

Also

P(A or B) is

P(A \cup B) = P(a) + P(b) + P(A \cap B)

Events A and B are mutually exclusive

This means that P(A \cap B) = 0

P(B) = 0.3 = P(b)

P(A \cup B) = P(a) + P(b) + P(A \cap B)

0.5 = P(a) + 0.3

P(a) = 0.2

P(A) = P(a) + P(A \cap B) = 0.2 + 0 = 0.2

Evaluate the integral e^xy w region d xy=1, xy=4, x/y=1, x/y=2
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
Make a change of coordinates:

u(x,y)=xy
v(x,y)=\dfrac xy

The Jacobian for this transformation is

\mathbf J=\begin{bmatrix}\dfrac{\partial u}{\partial x}&\dfrac{\partial v}{\partial x}\\\\\dfrac{\partial u}{\partial y}&\dfrac{\partial v}{\partial y}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}y&x\\\\\dfrac1y&-\dfrac x{y^2}\end{bmatrix}

and has a determinant of

\det\mathbf J=-\dfrac{2x}y

Note that we need to use the Jacobian in the other direction; that is, we've computed

\mathbf J=\dfrac{\partial(u,v)}{\partial(x,y)}

but we need the Jacobian determinant for the reverse transformation (from (x,y) to (u,v). To do this, notice that

\dfrac{\partial(x,y)}{\partial(u,v)}=\dfrac1{\dfrac{\partial(u,v)}{\partial(x,y)}}=\dfrac1{\mathbf J}

we need to take the reciprocal of the Jacobian above.

The integral then changes to

\displaystyle\iint_{\mathcal W_{(x,y)}}e^{xy}\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy=\iint_{\mathcal W_{(u,v)}}\dfrac{e^u}{|\det\mathbf J|}\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv
=\displaystyle\frac12\int_{v=}^{v=}\int_{u=}^{u=}\frac{e^u}v\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv=\frac{(e^4-e)\ln2}2
