Refer to question 1 above. If the die were fair, determine whether or not the events A and B are independent.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`A={(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(4,4),(5,5),(6,6)}`

` therefore {n}({A})=6 and {n}({S})=6 times 6=36`

So,` {P}({A})=frac{{n}({A})}{{n}({S})}=frac{6}{36}=frac{1}{6}`

`B={(4,6),(6,4),(5,5),(5,6),(6,5),(6,6)}`

` n(B)=6 and n(S)=36`

` therefore P(B)=frac{n(B)}{n(S)}=frac{6}{36}=frac{1}{6}`

` A cap B={(5,5),(6,6)}`

Events A and B are independent if

Two events A and B are said to be independent if :

For a loaded die, the probabilities of outcomes are given as under: P(1)=P(2)=2/(10),P(3)=P(5)=P(6)=1/(10)a n dP(4)=3/(10) The die is thrown two times. Let A and B be the events as defined below A=Getting same number each time, B=Getting a total score of 10 or more. Determine whether or not A and B are independent events.

If A and B are independent events, then A' and B' are also independent.

A coin is tossed three xx.Event A: two heads appear Event B: last should be head Then identify whether events A and B are independent or dependent.

A coin is tossed three times. Event A: two heads appear Event B: last should be head Then identify whether events A and B are independent or not.

In the two dice experiment, if A is the event of getting the sum of the numbers on dice as 11 and B is the event of getting a number other that 5 on the first die, find P(AandB) Are A and B independent events? OR Two dice are tossed. Find whether the following two events A and B are independent: A={(x , y): x+y=11},B={(x , y): x!=5},w h e r e(x , y) denote a typical sample point.

Two dice are thrown together.Let A be the event getting 6 on the first die and B the event getting 2 on the second die.Are the events A and B independent?

If A and B are independent events, then :

If A,B,C be three mutually independent events,then A and B uu C are also independent events.Statement 2: Two events A and B are independent if and only if P(A nn B)=P(A)P(B)
