Suppose that events E and F are independent PE 04 and PF 0

Suppose that events E and F are independent, P(E) = 0.4, and P(F) = 0.8 What is the P(E and F)? The probability P(E and F is = (Type an integer or a decimal)

Solution

Dear Student

Thank you for using Chegg !!

Given

P(E) = 0.4

P(F) = 0.8

Now since the events are independent

Independent events are defined as the events when occurence of 1 event does not ffect the probability of occurence of other event.

therefore P(E and F) = P(E) * P(F)

= 0.4 * 0.8

= 0.32   Solution
