i. The complement rule states that the probability of an event not occurring is equal to one minus
The probability of its occurrence.
ii. If there are two independent events A and B, the probability that A and B will occur is found by
Multiplying the two probabilities. Thus for two events A and B, the special rule of multiplication
Shown symbolically is: P(A and B) = P(A) P(B) .
iii. The general rule of multiplication is used to find the joint probability that two events will occur.
Symbolically, the joint probability P(A and B) is found by: P(A and B) = P(A) P(B/A) .
A) (i) , (ii) and (iii) are all correct statements
B) (i) and, (ii) are correct statements but not (iii) .
C) (i) and, (iii) are correct statements but not (ii) .
