Let Events A and B be described as follows: • P(A) = buying a boat
• P(B) = buying a boat trailer
The probability that you buy a boat trailer is 55% The probability of buying a boat trailer
and a boat is 44%. If the probability of buying a boat is 62%, are buying a boat and boat
trailer independent?
No, because P(BIA) = 0.71 and the P(B) = 0.55 are not equal.
No, because P(
AB) = 0.80 and the P(A) = 0.62 are not equal.
Yes, because PAB) = 0.80 and the P(A) = 0.62 are not equal.
Yes, because PB A) = 0.71 and the P(A) = 0.62 are not equal.
