Let Ajay will not appear in JEE exam with probability p=72, while both Ajay and Vijay will appear in the exam with probability q=51. Then the probability, that Ajay will appear in the exam and Vijay will not appear is :
(A)359
(B)3518✓ Correct
(C)3524
(D)353
Answer: (B)
Solution
P(Ajay does not appear)=p=72⟹P(Ajay appears)=1−72=75.
P(both appear)=q=51.
P(Ajay appears and Vijay does not)=P(Ajay appears)−P(both appear) (removing the overlap where Vijay also appears):
=75−51=3525−357=3518.
