Part (a)

P(A) = 0.5

P(B) = 0.4

P(B/A) = 0.6

P(A and B) = P(A)*P(B/A)

P(A and B) = 0.5*0.6

P(A and B) = 0.3

<h3>Answer: 0.3</h3>

==========================================

Part (b)

We'll use the result from part (a)

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)

P(A or B) = 0.5 + 0.4 - 0.3

P(A or B) = 0.6

<h3>Answer: 0.6</h3>

===========================================

Part (c)

A and B are not independent since P(B) does not equal P(B/A). The fact that event A happens changes the probability P(B). Recall that P(B/A) means "probability P(B) based on event A already happened". A and B are independent if P(B) = P(B/A).

Events A and B are not mutually exclusive since P(A or B) is not zero.

<h3>Answer: Neither</h3>
