If P(A) = 0.4, P(B) = p, P(A U B) = 0.6 and A and B are given to the independent events, find the value of ‘p’.
P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B) – P(A ∩ B)
= P(A) + P(B) – P(A) P(B) [as A and B are independent events]
∴ 0.6 = 0.4 + p – (0.4)p
or p = 1/3
= P(A) + P(B) – P(A) P(B) [as A and B are independent events]
∴ 0.6 = 0.4 + p – (0.4)p
or p = 1/3
If P(A) = 0.4, P(B) = 0.8 and P(B|A) = 0.6, then P(A ∪ B) is equal to
(a) 0.24
(b) 0.3
(c) 0.48
(d) 0.96
The radius r of a right circular cone is decreasing at the rate of 3 cm/minute and the height h is increasing at the rate of 2 cm/minute. When r = 9 cm and h = 6 cm, find the rate of change of its volume.
For the curve y = 5x – 2x³, if x increases at the rate of 2 units/sec, then find the rate of change of the slope of the curve when x = 3.
The volume of a sphere is increasing at the rate of 8 cm³/sec. Find the rate at which its surface area is increasing when the radius of the sphere is 12 cm.
