B

True or False: An investment consultant is recommending a certain class of mutual funds to the clienteles based on its exceptionally high probability of exceptionally high gain. It is an unethical practice to tell the clienteles the probability of a loss in her recommendations.

False

True or False: If P(A and B) = 1, then A and B must be mutually exclusive.

False

True or False: If P(A or B) = 1.0, then A and B must be mutually exclusive.

False

True or False: If P(A) = 0.4 and P(B) = 0.6, then A and B must be mutually exclusive.

False

True or False: If either A or B must occur they are called mutually exclusive.

False

True or False: To ethically advertise a school lottery scheme to try to raise money for the athletic department, the organizer of the lottery does not need to explicitly specify the probability of each of the prize in the lottery.

False

True or False: An investment consultant is recommending a certain class of mutual funds to the clienteles based on its exceptionally high probability of gain. It is an ethical practice to explain to the clienteles what the basis of her probability estimate is.

True

True or False: An investment consultant is recommending a certain class of mutual funds to the clienteles based on its exceptionally high probability of gain. It is an ethical practice to explain to the clienteles what the meaning of probability is.

True

True or False: If A and B cannot occur at the same time they are called mutually exclusive.

True

True or False: If P(A and B) = 1, then A and B must be collectively exhaustive.

True

True or False: If P(A or B) = 1.0, then A and B must be collectively exhaustive.

True or False: The collection of all the possible events is called a sample space.

True

True or False: When A and B are mutually exclusive, P(A or B) can be found by adding P(A) and P(B).
