P(A)=0.35
P(B)=0.65
P(A or B)=0.89
1. P(not A)
2. P(A and B)
3. determine if the events A and B are independent.

Answer #1
  1. P(not A) = P(Ac) = 1 - P(A) = 1-0.35 = 0.65
  2. P(A and B) = P(AB) = P(A) + P(B) - P(AB) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A or B) = 0.35 + 0.65 - 0.89 = 0.11
  3. If A and B are independent then P(AB) = P(A).P(B)

Here, P(AB) = 0.11 and P(A).P(B) = 0.350.65 = 0.2275

so, P(AB) P(A).P(B)

Hence, the events A and B are not independent.
