a) P (A and B) = P (A and B) =

b) P (A or B) = P (A or B) =

c) P (not A) = P (not A) =

d) P (not B) = P (not B) =

e) P (not (A or B)) = P (not (A or B)) =

    a 0

    b) 0.9

    c) 0.85

    d) 0.25

    e) 0.1

    f) 0.0375

    Step-by-step explanation:

    a)

    As A and B are two disjoints events, then P (A and B) is

    P (A and B) = 0

    b)

    As A and B are two disjoints events, then P (A or B) is

    P (A or B) = P (A) + P (B)

    P (A or B) = 0.15+0.75=0.9

    c)

    P (not A) = 1-P (A)

    P (not A) = 1-0.15=0.85

    d)

    P (not B) = 1-P (B)

    P (not B) = 1-0.75=0.25

    e)

    P (not (A or B)) = 1-P (A or B)

    P (not (A or B)) = 1-0.9=0.1

    f)

    P (A and (not B)) = P (A) * P (not B)

    P (A and (not B)) = 0.15*0.25=0.0375
