0.24

Suppose that A and B are independent events such that P(A)= 0.8 and P(B)= 0.3. Find P(A & B).

The given event is the event that is assumed to have occurred. The given event can restrict the outcomes available to the other​ event, and the probability that the given event occurs is usually necessary to calculate the conditional probability.

Which event is the​ "given event"?

An ordinary deck of playing cards has 52 cards. There are four suits—​spades, ​hearts, diamonds, and clubs—with 13 cards in each suit. Spades and clubs are​ black; hearts and diamonds are red. If one of these cards is selected at​ random, what is the probability that it is a spade?

An ordinary deck of playing cards has 52 cards. There are four suits—​spades, ​hearts, diamonds, and clubs—with 13 cards in each suit. Spades and clubs are​ black; hearts and diamonds are red. If one of these cards is selected at​ random, what is the probability that it is black?

The two events are not independent because P(B|A) not equal to P(B).

Decide whether or not the two events in question are independent or whether it is not possible to tell. P(B)= 0.7 and P(B|A)= 0.3

Find the probability of the indicated event if ​P(E)equals=0.25 and ​P(F)equals=0.55. Find​ P(E or​ F) if​ P(E and ​F)equals=0.05

0.92

Find the probability​ P(E or​ F) if E and F are mutually​ exclusive, ​P(E)equals=0.41​, and ​P(F)equals=0.51

Event B is said to be independent of event A if​ P(B|A)=​P(B).

What does it mean for event B to be independent of event​ A?

Three events are mutually exclusive if no two of them have outcomes in common.

What does it mean for three events to be mutually​ exclusive?

The conditional probability of an event is the probability that one event​ occurs, under the assumption that another event occurs.

What is conditional​ probability?
