Show the proofs 17 1f A and Bare independent events prove a

Show the proofs.

1.7 1f A and B_are independent events, prove: a. A and B are independent. b. A and B are independent. c. A and B are independent. 1.8 Show that if two sets are mutually exclusive, they are not independent but that the converse does not hold.

Solution

Since A and B are independent, we know from a theorem that P(A?B) = P(A)
