The special rule of multiplication of probability, the events must be ______________?
Correct answer: A. Independent
- A. Independent
- B. Mutually exclusive
- C. Bayesian
- D. Empirical
Explanation
The special multiplication rule, P(A∩B) = P(A)P(B), applies when events are independent. Mutually exclusive events cannot occur together, which is a different relationship and generally gives an intersection probability of zero.
