Question

Help!!!!!
A and B are independent events . P(A) = 0.80 and P(B) = .10 what is P(A and B) ?

Answer 1

Answer: 0.08

Explanation:

Answer 2

The probability of A and B is:

`P(A\ and\ B)=0.08`

Explanation:

We know that when two events: Event A and event B are independent then if P denote the probability of an event then Probability A and B is equal to the product of probability of the individual events.

i.e.

`P(A\ and\ B)=P(A)* P(B)`

Here we have:

P(A) = 0.80 and P(B) = 0.10

Hence,

`P(A\ and\ B)=0.80* 0.10\\\\P(A\ and\ B)=0.08`
