Q5. If A and B are two events such that P(A ∩B) = 0.1, and P(A ∣B) and P(B ∣A) are the roots of the equation – 12x2 −7x + 1 = 0, then the value of P(A∪B) is : P(A∩B) (1) 4 (2) 7 3 4 (3) 5 (4) 9 3 4

What This Question Tests

This question combines probability concepts, specifically conditional probability, with the properties of roots of a quadratic equation to find the probability of the union of two events.

Concepts Tested

Conditional probability P(A|B)Properties of roots of quadratic equation (sum and product)Probability of union of events P(A U B)

Formulas Used

P(A|B) = P(A ∩ B) / P(B)

P(B|A) = P(A ∩ B) / P(A)

P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A ∩ B)
