Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound probability is the likeliness of two or more events occurring together.

Probability can never be greater than 1 whatever form it takes. Its values range between zero and one. When a probability is multiplied with any particular number such as n ( number of trials) we get expected value or whatever the formula says but probability itself is never greater than 1.

If we get the answer of any question where the found probability is greater than 1 the answer is wrong because probability is not greater than 1.

The sum of all probabilities may be nearly equal to 1 like 0.99999 etc.

Question 12 (1 point) Given P(A) 0.34, P(A and B) 0.27, P(A or B) 0.44, what is P(B)? Answer in decimal form. Round to 2 decimal

Tema [17]

Answer: The required probability of event B is P(B) = 0.37.

Step-by-step explanation: For two events A and B, we are given the following probabilities :

P(A) = 0.34, P(A ∩ B) = 0.27 and P(A ∪ B) = 0.44.

We are to find the probability of event B, P(B) = ?

From the laws of probability, we have

$P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)\\\\\Rightarrow 0.44=0.34+P(B)-0.27\\\\\Rightarrow 0.44=0.07+P(B)\\\\\Rightarrow P(B)=0.44-0.07\\\\\Rightarrow P(B)=0.37.$

Thus, the required probability of event B is P(B) = 0.37.
