I think its A but I really need a step by step and show your work process so that I may understand it thoroughly.

A two-way frequency table shows baldness in men over 45 and men under 45?

Under 45 | over 45 | total
Bald | 24 | 16 | 40
not bald| 36 | 24 | 60
| 60 | 40 | 100

Based on this data, are baldness and being over 45 independent events?

a.) yes, p(bald|over 45)=p(bald)
b.) yes, p(bald|over 45)=p(over 45)
c.) no, p(bald|over 45) ≠ p(bald)
d.) no, p(bald|over 45)

@kilonielove  are u still there? are you posting your work?

probability first col  24/60 ---   bald/total men   =2/5
ditto           second col 16/40--ditto                       2/5

so it seems independent of age

but I don't understand the choices  not familiar with terminology
you pick
