Solution

Break Down the Problem

  1. Identify the total number of students and the number of students involved in both events A (basketball) and B (soccer).
  2. Use the conditional probability formula to find P(AB) P(A|B) .

Relevant Concepts

  1. The formula for conditional probability is given by: P(AB)=P(AB)P(B) P(A|B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)} where:
    • P(AB) P(A|B) is the probability of event A occurring given that B has occurred.
    • P(AB) P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B occurring.
    • P(B) P(B) is the probability of event B occurring.

Analysis and Detail

  1. Total Students: 10
  2. Find P(AB) P(A \cap B) : Count the number of students that play both basketball and soccer from the Venn diagram.
  3. Find P(B) P(B) : Count the number of students that play soccer.
  4. Substitute these values into the conditional probability formula.

Verify and Summarize

  1. Ensure the counts are accurate.
  2. Recalculate P(AB) P(A|B) using the counts obtained.

Final Answer

Assuming from the diagram P(AB) P(A \cap B) is, for instance, 3 students and P(B) P(B) is 5 students, we would have:

P(AB)=35=0.6 P(A|B) = \frac{3}{5} = 0.6

Please replace the values with the counts specifically from the Venn diagram provided for an accurate final answer.
