Question

If A and B are two events, the probability that exactly one of them occurs is given by

Moderate
Solution

We have,

P(exactly one of A, B occurs)

          =P[(AB)(AB)]=P(AB)+P(AB) =P(A)P(AB)+P(B)P(AB)=P(A)+P(B)2P(AB)=P(AB)P(AB)

Also,

P(exactly one of A,.B occurs)

          =[1P(AB)][1P(AB)]=P(AB)P(AB)]=P(A)+P(B)2P(AB)
