ELEN [110]

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two events A and B are independent when

$P(A|B)=P(A),$

where $P(A|B)$ is the probability that event A occurs given that event B has occured.

A = randomly selected person is from California

B = randomly selected person preferred brand A

A|B = being a person from California and preferring brand A.

Hence,

$P(A)=\dfrac{150}{275}=\dfrac{6}{11}\approx 0.55\\ \\P(B)=\dfrac{176}{275}=\dfrac{16}{25}=0.64\\ \\P(A|B)=\dfrac{96}{176}=\dfrac{6}{11}\approx 0.55$

Since $P(A)=P(A|B),$ events are independent.
