The probabilities of three eventsA,BandCare givenPA=0.6, PB=0.4andPC=0.5. IfPAB=0.8, PAC=0.3, PABC=0.2, PBC=βandPABC=α, where0.85α0.95,thenβlies in the interval :

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

PABC=P(A)+P(B)+P(C)-P(AB)-P(BC)-P(CA)+PABC

α=1.4-p(AB)-β

α+β=1.4-p(AB)....(1)

again

P(AB)=P(A)+P(B)-P(AB)

P(AB)=·2......(2)

by 1 and 2

α=1.2-β

now

0.85α0.95

0.851.2-β0.95β0.25,0.35
