Consider two events following receiving a bachelor’s degree from a prestigious university: A = {being accepted into a graduate program} and B = {receiving a job offer}. We know the following is true: P(A) = P(B) = 0.7 P(A|B) = 0.9 From the information provided, find the probability of being accepted into a graduate program and receiving a job offer, that is (A∩B)?
