Question
If $\text{P(B)}=\frac{3}{5},\text{P}(\text{A}|\text{B})=\frac{1}{2}$ and $\text{P}(\text{A}\cup\text{B})=\frac{4}{5},$ then $\text{P}(\text{B}|\overline{\text{A}})=$

Answer

  1. $\frac{3}{5}$
Solution:
$\text{P(B)}=\frac{3}{5},\text{P}\Big(\frac{\text{A}}{\text{B}}\Big)=\frac{1}{2},\text{P}(\text{A}\cup\text{B})=\frac{4}{5}$
Consider,
$\text{P}\Big(\frac{\text{A}}{\text{B}}\Big)=\frac{1}{2}$
$\frac{\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})}{\text{P(B)}}=\frac{1}{2}$
$\frac{\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})}{\frac{3}{5}}=\frac{1}{2}$
$\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})=\frac{3}{10}$
$\text{P(A)}+\text{P(B)}-\text{P}(\text{A}\cup\text{B})=\frac{3}{10}$
$\text{P(A)}+\frac{3}{5}-\frac{4}{5}=\frac{3}{10}$
$\text{P(A)}=\frac{1}{2}$
$\text{P}\Big(\frac{\text{B}}{\overline{\text{A}}}\Big)=\frac{\text{P}(\text{B}\cap\overline{\text{A}})}{\text{P}(\overline{\text{A}})}$
$\text{P}\Big(\frac{\text{B}}{\overline{\text{A}}}\Big)=\frac{\frac{3}{5}-\frac{3}{10}}{1-\frac{1}{2}}$
$\text{P}\Big(\frac{\text{B}}{\overline{\text{A}}}\Big)=\frac{3}{5}$
