Answer: A. P(A and B) = 0.14

Explanation:

The two events A and B are independent if the Intersection of the probability of both events is equal to the product of the event individual probability. This also means that the occurrence of one event does not affect the other event. Mathematically,

P(AnB) = P(A)(B)

P(AnB) = 0.70×0.20

P(AnB) = 0.14

P(A and B) = 0.14
