MCQ

If $A$ and $B$ are such that $\text{P}(\text{A}\cup\text{B})=\frac{5}{9}$ and $\text{P}(\overline{\text{A}}\cup\overline{\text{B}})=\frac{2}{3},$ then $\text{P}(\overline{\text{A}})+\text{P}(\overline{\text{B}})=$

A
$\frac{9}{10}$
✓
$\frac{10}{9}$
C
$\frac{8}{9}$
D
$\frac{9}{8}$

✓

Answer

Correct option: B.

$\frac{10}{9}$

$\text{P}(\text{A}\cup\text{B})=\frac{5}{9},\text{P}(\overline{\text{A}}\cup\overline{\text{B}})=\frac{2}{3}$
Consider,
$\text{P}(\overline{\text{A}}\cup\overline{\text{B}})=\text{P}(\overline{\text{A}\cup\text{B}})$
$\Rightarrow\text{P}(\overline{\text{A}}\cup\overline{\text{B}})=\frac{2}{3}$
$\Rightarrow 1-\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})=\frac{2}{3}$
$\Rightarrow\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})=\frac{1}{3}$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{P(A)}+\text{P(B)}-\text{P}(\text{A}\cup\text{B})=\frac{1}{3}$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{P(A)}+\text{P(B)}-\frac{5}{9}=\frac{1}{3}$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{P(A)}+\text{P(B)}=\frac{8}{9}$
$\text{P}(\overline{\text{A}})+\text{P}(\overline{\text{B}})=1-\text{P(A)}+1-\text{P(B)}$
$\Rightarrow\text{P}(\overline{\text{A}})+\text{P}(\overline{\text{B}})=2-\big[\text{P(A)}+\text{P(B)}\big]$
$\Rightarrow\text{P}(\overline{\text{A}})+\text{P}(\overline{\text{B}})=2-\frac{8}{9}$
$\Rightarrow\text{P}(\overline{\text{A}})+\text{P}(\overline{\text{B}})=\frac{10}{9}$
