Question

Suppose that events E and F are independent, P(E)=0.6, and P(F) = 0.9. What is the P(E and F)?
The probability P(E and F) is _____ (Type an integer or a decimal.)

Answer 1

Answer: 0.54

Step-by-step explanation:

If events E and F are independent, then:

P(E and F) = P(E) × P(F)

Given that P(E) = 0.6 and P(F) = 0.9:

P(E and F) = 0.6 × 0.9

P(E and F) = 0.54

The probability P(E and F) is 0.54.
