Let A1,A2,…,An be events in some probability space. State and prove the inclusion-exclusion formula for the probability P(⋃i=1nAi). Show also that
P(i=1⋃nAi)⩾i∑P(Ai)−i<j∑P(Ai∩Aj)
Suppose now that n⩾2 and that whenever i=j we have P(Ai∩Aj)⩽1/n. Show that there is a constant c independent of n such that ∑i=1nP(Ai)⩽cn.
