Question 89895 • Math Models A
A bag contains a variety of different-colored marbles. If P(red) = , P(green) = , and P(red and green) = , which statement is true?
Answer
A
The events are independent because P(red) • P(green) = P(red and green).B
The events are independent because P(red) + P(green) = P(red and green).C
The events are dependent because P(red) • P(green) ≠ P(red and green).D
The events are dependent because P(red) + P(green) ≠ P(red and green).
