You are given the information thatP(A) = 0.30 andP(B) = 0.40.
(a) Do you have enough information to computeP(A or B)? Explain.
No. You need to know the value ofP(A) +P(B).No. You need to know the value ofP(A and B).    Yes. This probability is equal to 0.70.No. You need to know the value ofP(A) -P(B).


(b) If you know that eventsA andB are mutually exclusive, do you have enough information to computeP(A or B)? Explain.
Yes.P(A and B) = 0.12, soP(A or B) =P(A) +P(B) - 0.12.Yes.P(A and B) = 0, soP(A or B) =P(B) -P(A).    No. Knowing the events are mutually exclusive does not provide any extra information.Yes.P(A and B) = 0, soP(A or B) =P(A) +P(B).
