A marketing firm tracks data on grocery store visits. In one study, it finds that the probability that a shopper buys bread during a visit to the grocery store is 0.60, and the probability that a shopper buys cheese is 0.25. Event A A shopper buys bread. Event B- A shopper buys cheese. A and B are independent events if____.

Respuesta :

Answer: A and B are independent events if P(A∩B)=P(A).P(B)=0.15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event that a shopper buys bread.

Let B be the event that a shopper buys cheese.

So, P(A∪B)=100

Probability that a shopper buys bread during a visit to the grocery store =n 0.60

P(A) = 0.60

Similarly, Probability that a shopper buys bread = 0.25

P(B) = 0.25

Since A and B are independent then,

[tex]P(A\cap B)=P(A).P(B)=0.60\times 0.25=0.15[/tex]

So, A and B are independent events if P(A∩B)=P(A).P(B)=0.15.
