Dr. Miriam Johnson has been teaching accounting for over 20 years. From her experience, she knows that 60% of her students do homework regularly. Moreover, 95% of the students who do their homework regularly pass the course. She also knows that 85% of her students pass the course. Let event A be “Do homework regularly” and B be “Pass the course”.a. What is the probability that a student will do homework regularly and also pass the course? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) b. What is the probability that a student will neither do homework regularly nor pass the course? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) c. Are the events “pass the course” and “do homework regularly” mutually exclusive?multiple choice 1 Yes because P(B | A) = P(B). No because P(B | A) ≠ P(B). Yes because P(A ∩ B) = 0. No because P(A ∩ B) ≠ 0. d. Are the events “pass the course” and “do homework regularly” independent?multiple choice 2 Yes because P(B | A) = P(B). No because P(B |…
