Consider two events A and B from the same sample space S. Which of the following statements is not true:

a) If A and B are independent, then P left parenthesis A right parenthesis equals P left parenthesis right enclose A B right parenthesis

b) If A and B are mutually exclusive events, then P left parenthesis A union B right parenthesis equals P left parenthesis A right parenthesis plus P left parenthesis B right parenthesis

c) If A and B are collectively exhaustive events, then P left parenthesis A intersection B right parenthesis equals 1

d) The union of A and its complement A' is the sample space S : left parenthesis i. e space A union A apostrophe equals S right parenthesis
