Question

If $\text{P(A)}=0.3,\text{P(B)}=0.6,\text{P}\Big(\frac{\text{B}}{\text{A}}\Big)=0.5,$ find $\text{P}(\text{A}\cup\text{B}).$

Answer

Given,
$\text{P(A)}=0.3,\text{P(B)}=0.6,\text{P}\Big(\frac{\text{B}}{\text{A}}\Big)=0.5,$
$\text{P}\Big(\frac{\text{B}}{\text{A}}\Big)=\frac{\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})}{\text{P(A)}}$
$0.5=\frac{\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})}{0.3}$
$\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})=0.5\times0.3$
$\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})=0.15$
$\text{P}(\text{A}\cup\text{B})=\text{P(A)}+\text{P(B)}-\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})$
$=0.3+0.6+0.15$
$=0.75$
$\text{P}(\text{A}\cup\text{B})=0.75$
