Here's the solution to question 1:
1. (i) Probability of Events A and B
Given: and .
(Note: We assume the given is a typo and should be .)
a) Calculate .
The probability of event B occurring is the sum of the probabilities of (A and B) and (not A and B), since these are disjoint events that make up B.
To add these fractions, find a common denominator, which is .
b) Calculate .
The notation typically means , which is . However, with the given information, cannot be determined as is unknown.
A common alternative interpretation for in some contexts, or a possible misprint for , is conditional probability . We will proceed with this interpretation as it allows for a solvable problem.
Using the values from the given information and part a):
