Condition (A) P(B/A) = y is true.
What is probability?
- Probability is an area of mathematics that deals with numerical descriptions of how probable an event is to occur or how likely a statement is to be true.
To find the true condition:
If two events are independent, then:
- Pr(A∩B) = Pr(A) . Pr(B)
Use formulas for conditional probabilities:
- Pr(A/B) = Pr(A∩B) / Pr(B)
- Pr(B/A) = Pr(B∩A) / Pr(A)
For independent events these formulas will be:
- Pr(A/B) = Pr(A∩B) / Pr(B) = Pr(A) . Pr(B) / Pr(B) = Pr(A)
- Pr(B/A) = Pr(B∩A) / Pr(A) = Pr(B) . Pr(A) / Pr(A) = Pr(B)
Now in your case, Pr(A) = x and Pr(B) = y.
- Pr(A/B) = x, Pr(B/A) = y, Pr(A∩B) = x.y
Therefore, condition (A) P(B/A) = y is true.
