For all statistics problem illustrated below, read properly and as per instructions provide answers by showing all the computation part. Q1. The financial record of two companies A and B are analyzed to find out whether each company illustrated a profit (P) or not (N) throughout the last financial year. Is this an arbitrary experiment? Validate your answer. Q2. The financial record of two companies A and B are analyzed to find out whether each company illustrated a profit (P) or not (N) throughout the last financial year. List the simple events related by this experiment. Q3. The financial record of two companies A and B are analyzed to find out whether each company represented a profit (P) or not (N) throughout the last financial year. Assume P(A exhibits profit) = 0.8 and P(B exhibits profit) = 0.2, determine the probability that either of the company represents profit?
