A- Let A and B two events such that P(A) = 0.4 and P(A or B) =0.7. Find P(B) if A and B are independent. B- Let A and B two events such that P(A) = 0.6 and P(A or B) =0.8. Find P(B) if A and B are mutually exclusive events.

For two events $A$ and $B$, let $P(A)=0.4, P(A+B)=0.7$ and $P(B)=p$. For what value of $p$ are $A$ and $B$ (i) mutually exclusive, (ii) independent?
Let P(A) = A%, P(A U B) = 0.7 . Find P(B) if the events A and B are mutually exclusive_ the events and B are independent: A=20

Interpretation Suppose you are a hospital manager and have been told that there is no need to worry that respirator monitoring equipment might fail because the probability any one monitor will fail is only $0.01$. The hospital has 20 such monitors and they work independently. Should you be more concerned about the probability that exactly one of the 20 monitors fails, or that at least one fails? Explain.
