Total | 0.35 | 0.65 | 1.00 |
Let A represent using ketchup and B represent using mustard.
Which statement is true?
Using ketchup and using mustard are independent events because P(A|B)≠P(A) and P(B|A)≠P(B) .
Using ketchup and using mustard are not independent events because P(A|B)≠P(A) and P(B|A)≠P(B) .
Using ketchup and using mustard are independent events because P(A|B)=P(A)P(A|B)=P(A) and P(B|A)=P(B) .
I chose this one someone please confirm ---> Using ketchup and using mustard are not independent events because P(A|B)=P(A) and P(B|A)=P(B) .
