(A) A and B are always independent (B) A and B cannot be both independent and mutually exclusive (C) A and B are always mutually exclusive (D) A and B can be both independent and mutually exclusive 15. If P(A) = 0.20, P(B) = 0.30 and P(A and B) = 0.06, then A and B are: (A) mutually exclusive events (B) dependent events (C) complementary events (D) independent events 16.
