Answer:
<u>If A and B are independent events, P(A and B) = P (A) * P (B)</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's recall that independent events means that when one event occurs, it has no impact or influence on the probability of another event occurring. Here’s an example. Let’s say that we have two events, A and B.
Event A : it rains in Seattle
Event B : the Super Bowl match is cancelled in Miami
The two events are independent; if it rains in Seattle, this will have no impact on the probability that the Super Bowl match is cancelled in Miami. Raining in Seattle and the cancellation of the Super Bowl are independent events, therefore:
<u>P(A and B) = P (A) * P (B)</u>
→ 3 ≠ 1 → A is eliminated.
→ 5 ≠
→ B is eliminated.
→ 2 = 2 → C satisfies the equation.
→ 10 ≠
→ D is eliminated.
→ -1 = -1 → E satisfies the equation.
→ 3 = 3 → F satisfies the equation.
