The probability for each event follows below:

P(A)= 0.23

P(E)= 0.24

P(F)= 0.28

P(N)= 0.12

P(O)= 0.07

P(S)= 0.06

<h3>Probability</h3>

Probability can be defined as the possibility that an event will occur. For an event, the probability can be found from the ratio between the number of favorable outcomes for the event and the total number of outcomes.  Values of probability vary between 0 and 1.

A probability for an event is represented by P(A), P(B), etc. And exactly this that question asks for you.

1. Arrange the text of the question

       North America=23 countries

       South America= 12 countries

       Europe=  47 countries

       Asia= 44 countries

      Africa =54 countries

      Oceania= 14 countries

2. Find the total of countries

N_{total}=23+12+47+44+54+14=194

3. Find P(A)

A= the event that a country is in Asia= 44 countries. Therefore,

P(A)=\frac{numberofcountries of Asia}{Total number of countries } \\ \\ P(A)=\frac{44}{194} =0.23\\ \\ P(A)=0.23

4. Find P(E)

E= the event that a country is in Europe= 47 countries. Therefore,

P(E)=\frac{numberofcountries of Europe}{Total number of countries } \\ \\ P(E)=\frac{47}{194} =0.24\\ \\ P(E)=0.24

5. Find P(F)

F= the event that a country is in Africa= 54 countries. Therefore,

P(F)=\frac{numberofcountries of Africa}{Total number of countries } \\ \\ P(F)=\frac{54}{194} =0.28\\ \\ P(F)=0.28

6. Find P(N)

N= the event that a country is in North America= 23 countries. Therefore,

P(N)=\frac{numberofcountries of North America}{Total number of countries } \\ \\ P(N)=\frac{23}{194} =0.12\\ \\ P(N)=0.12

7. Find P(O)

O= the event that a country is in Oceania= 14 countries. Therefore,

P(O)=\frac{numberofcountries of Oceania}{Total number of countries } \\ \\ P(O)=\frac{14}{194} =0.07\\ \\ P(O)=0.07

8. Find P(S)

S= the event that a country is in South America= 12 countries. Therefore,

P(S)=\frac{numberofcountries of South America}{Total number of countries } \\ \\ P(S)=\frac{12}{194} =0.06\\ \\ P(S)=0.06

Can you conclude that a = b if a and b are two sets with the same power set?
zalisa [80]

The sets A and sets B contains items called elements

It is true that the set A is equal to set B

<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>

The sets are given as:

Set A and set B

Since the sets have the same power set, then we have:

P(A) = P(B)

The above means that:

For every element X in A, then the element is also in B

And

For every element Y not in A, then the element is also not in B

So, we can conclude that:

All subsets of the set A are subsets of the set B and vice versa

Hence, the set A is equal to set B
