For each set of probabilities, determine whether the events A and B are independent or dependent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Apply the correct formula to check whether two events are independent or not

If the events A and B are independent, then:

P(A) x P(B) = P(A⋂B)

The formula of conditional probability:

P(A⋂B) = P(A|B) x P(B) = P(B|A) x P(A)

Step 2: Perform the calculation

a)

P(A) x P(B) = (1/6) x (1/4) = 1/24

P(A⋂B) = P(A|B) x P(B) = (1/5) x (1/6) = 1/30

=> P(A) x P(B) is not equal to P(A⋂B)

=> A and B are not independent.

b)

P(A) x P(B) = (1/2) x (1/4) = 1/8

P(A⋂B) = 1/8

=> P(A) x P(B) is equal to P(A⋂B)

=> A and B are independent.

c)

P(A) x P(B) = (1/2) x (1/6) = 1/12

P(A⋂B) = P(A|B) x P(B) = (1/2) x (1/6) = 1/12

=> P(A) x P(B) is equal to P(A⋂B)

=> A and B are independent.

d)

P(A) x P(B) = (1/3) x (1/6) = 1/18

P(A⋂B) = P(B|A) x P(A) = (1/2) x (1/3) = 1/6

=> P(A) x P(B) is not equal to P(A⋂B)

=> A and B are not independent.

Hope this helps!
