Rework problem 3 from section 3.2 of your text, involving sets E and F. Suppose for this problem that Pr[E]=2/3, Pr[F]=2/3 and Pr[(E∪F)′]=0.

1)What is Pr[E|F] = 

2)What is Pr[F|E] = 

Next, suppose that Pr[E]=14, Pr[F]=5/16, and Pr[E∩F′]=1/16

1)What is Pr[E|F] = 

2) What is Pr[F|E] = 

Finally, suppose that Pr[A|B]=3/4, Pr[A]=1/2, and Pr[B′]=3/4.

1)What is Pr[B|A] = 

2)What is Pr[B|A′] =

 

Sorry in advance, I know this is a lot. 

Expert Solution
Step 1

Let us assume A and B be two events with P(A) > 0. Then the conditional probability of B given A is defined as the probability of occurrence of the event B when it is assumed that the event A has already been occurred. It is given by,
