Question

If A and B are two independent events with P(A) = 0.25 and P(
B) = 0.45, then P(A 
B) = 0.70.

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The statement is false. The correct formula for the probability of the intersection of two independent events is P(A and B) = P(A) × P(B). Therefore, P(A and B) = 0.25 × 0.45 = 0.1125, which is not equal to 0.70.
