Fill in the blanks. In the first blank, choose between and and or. If P(A) = 0.60 and P(B) = 0.35, then A and B are independent events if P(A ______ B) = ______.

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]a.\ P(A\cap B), \\\\b.\ P(A)\times P(B)\\=0.21[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

-A and B are said to be independent, if the occurence of A doesn't affect the occurence of B.

-As such the probability that event B occurs given that event A has occurred is the same as the probability of event B.

[tex]P(A\cap B)=P(A)\times P(B)\\\\=0.60\times0.35\\\\=0.21[/tex]

The probability of A and B being independent is 0.21
