Question

P(A) = 0.35 and P(B.) = 0.42. If events A and B are independent, what is P(A∩B)?

0.83
0.77
0.15
0.07

Answer 1

(Ignore the dot in the P(B.) I just had to put there so there wouldn't be an emoji)

Answer 3

If events A and B are independent, then we can use the formula P(A∩B) = P(A) * P(B). Therefore, using the values given in the problem, we have:

P(A∩B) = P(A) * P(B) = 0.35 * 0.42 = 0.147

The closest option is 0.15.
