If \(A\) and \(B\) are any two events of a sample space, then set-theoretic description for the event: "Exactly one of the events A, B to occur" is
(Here \(\mathrm{E}^{\mathrm{c}}\) denotes the compliment of the event \(\mathrm{E}\) )

  1. A \(A \cap B^c\)
  2. B \((A-B) \cup(A \cup B)\)
  3. C \(\left(A \cap B^c\right) \cup\left(A^c \cap B\right)\)
  4. D \((A \cap B)^c \cup\left(A^c \cap B^c\right)\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\left(A \cap B^c\right) \cup\left(A^c \cap B\right)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

When only event \(A\) occurs, then it can be written as \(\left(A \cap B^C\right)\) And when only event B occurs, then it can be written as \(\left(A^C \cap B\right)\) Then, 'exactly one of the events \(A, B\) to occur' can be written as :…
