Q1:

Q. Two coins are tossed once them find the P(A/B) given that.

i) A: Tail appears on one coin.
    B: One coin shows head.

ii) A: no tail appear
     B: no head appears.



 

Dear student
1) Two coins are tossed onceLet heads be denoted by 'h'and tails be denoted by 't'S=h,h,h,t,t,h,t,tWe nee to find the probability that tail appears on one coin,if we know thaone coin shows head.Let B: one coin shows headA: Tail appears on one coinWe need to find P(A|B)A=h,t,t,hP(A)=24=12and B=h,t,t,hP(B)=24=12Also, AB=h,t,(t,h)PAB=24=12Now, PA|B=PABP(B)=1/21/2=12) S=h,h,h,t,t,h,t,tWe need to find the probability that no tail appears,if known that no head appearsB: no head appearsA: no tail appearsWe need to find P(A|B)E={(h,h)} P(E)=14F={(t,t)} P(F)=14Also, AB=ϕSo,PAB=0Now, P(A|B)=PABPB=014=0So, P(A|B)=0
