Question

The probability of two independent events occurring together is

a.) the sum of the probability of each event occurring separately
b.) the product of the probability of each event occurring separately
c.) the difference between the probability of each event occurring separately
d.) impossible to determine

Answer 1

B or C I'm not for sure but I know it's not impossible to determine and they don't product occur separately. I might go with C

Answer 2

Independent events aren’t connected and the probability of one happening has no effect on the other.

The probability of two independent events occurring together is the product of the probability of each event occurring separately. Correct answer: B

So, we can write the following: When two events, A and B, are independent, the probability of both occurring is: P(A and B) = P(A) · P(B)
