Events A and B are mutually exclusive. Suppose event A occurs with probability 0.36 and event B occurs with probability 0.31. Compute the following. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) Compute the probability that A does not occur or B does not occur (or both). 0. x 5 ? (b) Compute the probability that either A occurs without B occurring or A and B both occur. 0.36​

Answer:

Events A and B are dependent

Step-by-step explanation:

If A and B are two events such as A and B are dependent then

P(A∩B) P(A) P(B)

An event A will occur with probability 0.4 that is

An event B will occur with probability 0.6 that is

The probability that both A and B will occur is 0.20 that is P(A∩B) = 0.20

Therefore,

P(A∩B) P(A) P(B)

So,

events A and B are dependent
