Assignment 1 1. Prove that : P (E ∪ F ∪ G) = P (E) + P (F ) + P (G) − P (E c ∩ F ∩ G) − P (E ∩ F c ∩ G) − P (E ∩ F ∩ Gc ) − 2P (E ∩ F ∩ G). 2. Prove the followings: (a) (∪∞ An )c = ∩∞ Ac . (cf) In order to prove A = B for two sets A and B, you i=1 n n=1 should show that ∀x ∈ A, x ∈ B, and vice versa.) (b) Let F be a σ-field on Ω. If An ∈ F for all n ∈ N, then ∩∞ An ∈ F. n=1 3.
