Question

According to a family-oriented lobbying group, there is too much crude language and violence on television. 42% of the programs they screened had language they found offensive, 27% were too violent, and 10% were considered excessive in both language and violence. What percentage of programs did comply with the group's standards? Let A and B be any 2 events defined on S. Suppose that P(A) = 0.4, P(B) = 0.5, and P(A intersect B) = 0.1. What is the probability that A or B but not both occur? Recall that "only A' and 'only B' concepts discussed in class.

Explanation / Answer

1) 10% WERE BOTH EXCESSIVE IN LANGUAGE AND VIOLENCE ALSO WHERE AS

27% WAS EXCESSIVE IN VIOLENCE THEREFORE WHICH MEANS 27-10= 17% WAS ONLY EXCESSIVE IN VIOLENCE.

42% IS EXCESSIVE IN LANGUAGE WHICH MEANS 42-10 = 32% IS EXCESSIVE IN LANGUAGE

HENCE THE TOTAL BECOMES = 10%+17%+32% = 59%

HENCE TOTAL WHICH COMES UNDER THE STANDARD = 100 - 59 = 41%
