. Suppose that the probability of event A is 0.4 and the probability of event B is 0.5. What is P A B ( ) ? if A and B are mutually exclusive? What is P A B ( ) ? if A and B are independent?
Given that, P(A) = 0.4 and P(B) = 0.5
i) If event A and event B are mutually exclusive then their intersection is null and probability of their intersection is zero.
That is ,
and
ii) If event A and B are independent events then,
and
