Concept explainers
To define the multiplication principle.
Answer to Problem 6CR
If A and B are two independent events in a probability experiment, then the probability that both events occur simultaneously is: P(A and B)=P(A)·P(B).
In case of dependent events, the probability that both events occur simultaneously is:
P(A and B)=P(A)·P(B|A)
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Define the multiplication principle.
If A and B are two independent events in a probability experiment, then the probability that both events occur simultaneously is: P(A and B)=P(A)·P(B)
In case of dependent events, the probability that both events occur simultaneously is:
P(A and B)=P(A)·P(B|A).
