The correct match of events with order are,
- P(A)P(B|A) - Dependent event
- P(A)+P(B) - Mutually exclusive events
- P(A and B)/P(A) - Conditional events
- P(A) . P(B) - Independent Events
- P(A)+P(B) -P(A and B) - not Mutually exclusive events.
When two events A and B are independent then,
P(A and B)=P(A).P(B)
when A and B are dependent events then,
P(A and B) = P(A) . P(B|A)
When two events A and B are mutually exclusive events then,
P(A and B)=0
So, P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B) = P(A) + P(B)
P(A) + P(B) = P(A or B)
When events are not mutually exclusive then the general relation is,
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)
If the probability of the event B conditioned by A is given by,
Hence the correct match are -
Dependent event
Mutually exclusive events
Conditional events
Independent Events
not Mutually exclusive events.
