Answer:0.10
Step-by-step explanation:for mutually exclusive events, p(a intersection b)=0
P(A')=0.45
P(A)=0.55
P(AUB)=P(A)+P(B)
0.65=0.55+P(B)
0.10=P(B)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A and B are mutually exclusive events
so, A intersection B = 0
given, p(not A) = 0.45
p(not A) = 1 - p(A)
=> p(A) = 1 - p(not A)
=> 1 - 0.45 = 0.55
now, p(A union B) = p(A)+P(B)-P(A intersect B)
=> 0.65 = 0.55 + P(B) - 0
=> p(B) = 0.65 - 0.55 = 0.10
Therefore, p(B) = 0.10
hope this answer is helpful
