If $A$ and $B$ are two candidates seeking admission in an engineering college. The probability that $A$ is selected is 0.5 and the probability that both $A$ and $B$ are selected is at most 0.3 . Is it possible that the probability of $B$ getting selected is 0.7 ?
The probability of intersection of two events $A$ and $B$ is always less than or equal to those favourable to the event $A$.
The probability of an occurrence of event $A$ is 0.7 and that of the occurrence of event $B$ is 0.3 and the probability of occurence of both is 0.4 .
The sum of probabilities of two students getting distinction in their final examinations is 1.2 .
The probability that the home team will win an upcoming football game is 0.77 , the probability that it will tie the game is 0.08 and the probability that it will lose the game is ... .
$$P(\text { lossing })=1-(0.77+0.08)=0.15$$
