Question

Given the following information about events A B , and C :

A) P(A)=0.62 P(B|A)=0
​B) P(B)=0.34 P(C|B)=0.34
C) P(C)=0.07 P(A|C)=0.62
Are events A and B mutually exclusive, independent, or both?

Answer 1

Events A and B are not mutually exclusive or independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Events A and B are not mutually exclusive because the conditional probability of event B given event A is not zero. Additionally, events A and B are not independent because the probability of event B is not equal to the probability of event B given event A. To determine if events A and B are independent, you can compare the values of P(B) and P(B|A).
