Question

The table shows employment status for 1600 adults from five countries. Are the events S = "is Swedish" and E = "is employed"
independent? Why or why not?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes; because P(S & E)= P(E) • P(E).

Step-by-step explanation:

P(S)=530/1600 = 0.33, P(E)= 1523/1600= 0.95, and P(S & E)= 498/1600= 0.31 = (0.33)(0.95)
