B) independent as well as mutually exclusive
C) independent
D) dependent only on A
E) dependent only on B
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
\[\because \]\[P(A\cap B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cup B)\] \[=\frac{2}{3}+\frac{1}{2}-\frac{5}{6}=\frac{4+3-5}{6}=\frac{1}{3}\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[P(A\cup B)=P(A)P(B)\] \[\therefore \]Both the events are independent.You need to login to perform this action.
