IF P(A)=1/3, P(B)=2/5, and P(AuB)=3/5, what is P(A^B)?

Bumek [7]

The probability of the union of two events is the sum of their probability, minus the probability of their interserction:

$P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)$

If we plug the known values into this formula, we have

$\dfrac{3}{5} = \dfrac{1}{3} + \dfrac{2}{5} - P(A\cap B)$

From which we can deduce

$P(A\cap B) = \dfrac{1}{3} + \dfrac{2}{5} - \dfrac{3}{5} = \dfrac{2}{15}$

So, the probability of $A \setminus B$ is a bit less than $P(A)$ , we have to take away all events that belong to B as well:

$P(A \setminus B) = P(A) - P(A\cap B) = \dfrac{1}{3} - \dfrac{2}{15} = \dfrac{1}{5}$

Answer:

$\sf \boxed{ \sf y - 3 = \dfrac{3}{2} (x - 6)}$

Explanation:

$\sf Given \ equation: y = \dfrac{3}{2} x - 5$

Comparing it with slope intercept form "y = mx + b" where 'm' is slope and 'b' is y-intercept.

Here slope: 3/2 and y-intercept: -5

Parallel slope has the same tangent slope.

Pass through point (x, y) = (6, 3)

Equation:

$\sf y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)$

$\rightarrow \sf y - 3 = \dfrac{3}{2} (x - 6)$
