Events A and B are mutually exclusive. Suppose event A occurs with probability 0.35 and event B occurs with probability 0.12. IF event A or event B occurse (or both) what is the probability that A occurs? Round your answer to at least two decimal places

Step 1
We know that events A and B are mutually exclusive, which means that they cannot occur at the same time. Therefore, the probability of A or B occurring (or both) is simply the sum of their individual probabilities: P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) = 0.35 + 0.12 = 0.47 Show more…

Events A and B are mutually exclusive. Suppose event A occurs with probability 0.12 and event B occurs with probability 0.4. a. Compute the probability that B occurs or A does not occur (or both). b. Compute the probability that either A occurs without B occurring or B occurs without A occurring.
