Give a mathematical derivation of the formula P((A ∩ Bc ) ∪ (Ac ∩ B)) = P(A) + P(B) − 2P(A ∩ B). Your derivation should be a sequence of steps, with each step justified by appealing to one of the probability axioms. ##### solution ########## 1 Since the events A ∩ Bc and Ac ∩ B are disjoint, we have, using the additivity axiom, P((A ∩ Bc ) ∪ (Ac ∩ B)) = P(A ∩ Bc ) + P(Ac...
