Probability 2012-03-14
tom pose la question :
Let A and B be events with p(A ∪ B)= 7/8, p(A ∩ B)= 1/4, p(A' )= 5/8
Find:
a. p(A)
b. p(B)
c. P(A ∩ B')
...problem for me is that if p(A') = 5/8 then P(A) should be 1/4...so that the p(A' ∪ A) = p(A ∪ B) = 7/8...however, the book says the answer for p(A) is 3/8...does that mean, my interpretation is wrong (because if it is, then all my answers would be crap)...or is it just another typographical error?

An increase/decrease in profit 2012-03-13
Thanikasalam pose la question :
It is understood that increase/decrease in profit for current year compared to the previous year is done by the formula (x-y)/y, with x=profit on current year and y=profit on previous year. How do we derive this formula?

If we work on this formula of calculating increase/decrease in profit, we get x/y-1

* = (x-y)/y
= x/y - y/y
= x/y - 1

How do you justify the 1 in the equation above. How to derive the formula and how do i prove it?

Penny Nom lui répond.
