Question
For the given pair of events Aand B, complete parts (a) and (b) below. A: en a page is randomly selected and ripped from a 7-page document and destroyed, it is page 2. G B: When a different page is randomly selected and ripped from the document, it is page 6. a. Determine whether events Aand B are independent or dependent. (f two events are technically dependent but can be treated as if they are independent according to the 5% guideline, consider them to be independent) b. Find P(A and B), the probability that events Aand B both occur. a. Choose the correct answer below O A. The two events are independent because the 5% guideline indicates that they should be treated as independent. O B. The two events are dependent because the occurrence of one affects the probability of the occurrence of the other O c. The two events are independent because the occurrence of one does not affect the probability of the occurrence of the other. O D. The two events are dependent because the occurrence of one does not affect the probability of the occurrence of the other. b. The probability that events A and B both occur is (Round to four decimal places as needed.) Click to select your answer(s).Explanation / Answer
Solution:- b. The two events are dependent because the occurrence of one affects the probability of the occurrence of the other.
b. The probability that events A and B both occur is
= (1/7)(1/6)
= 1/42
= 0.0238
