Events A and B are mutually exclusive. Which of the following statements is also true? A and B are also independent. P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P(B) P(A ∩ B) = 0

Step 1
This means that the occurrence of one event excludes the occurrence of the other event. In other words, if event A happens, then event B cannot happen, and vice versa. Now, let's look at the statements: A and B are also independent: This statement cannot be true Show more…

Which of the following statements are true? Mark all that apply. -Two events are independent if they cannot occur at the same time. -If events A and B are overlapping, then P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B) -If P(A) is the probability that event A will occur, then the probability event A will NOT occur is 1 - P(A). -If events A and B are independent, then P(A and B) = P(A) + P(B) -If A and B are independent events, then the probability of Event B occurring is the same whether or not Event A occurs.

Events A and B are independent events if the probability of Event B occurring is the same whether or not Event A occurs. If P(A) is the probability that event A will occur, then the probability event A will NOT occur is 1 - P(A).
