  1. A \(\frac{29}{35}\)
  2. B \(\frac{39}{70}\)
  3. C \(\frac{1}{2}\)
  4. D \(\frac{41}{105}\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We have, \(P(A \cap B)=P(A) . P(B), P(B)=\frac{2}{7}\). and \[ P\left(A \cup B^c\right)=0.8 \] Consider, \(P\left(A \cup B^c\right)=0.8\)…
