Question

The probability of event A is 0.56, and the probability of event B is 0.34. If A and B are independent events, then P(A and B) =

Answer 1

Answer:

$P(A and B)=0.1904$

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the probability of an event A is :$P(A)=0.56$ and the probability of an event B is :$P(B)=0.34$.

Also, it is given that A and B are the independent events, then

$P(A and B)=P(A){\times}P(B)$

Thus, $P(A and B)=(0.56){\times}(0.34)$

$P(A and B)=0.1904$.

Therefore, If A and B are the independent events, then the value of $P(A and B)$ is $0.1904$.

Answer 2

An equation that might be used to work out the values for A and B might be P(A and B) = P(A) x P(B)P(A and B) = 0.34 x 0.56 = 0.1904
