Quantitative Methods Q150

0. Consider two independent events, A and B, with unequal probabilities (i.e. P(A) ≠ P(B)), then the probability of event A given that event B has occurred (i.e., P(A│B)) is best described as:

  • Option : A
  • Explanation : Two events, A and B, are independent if and only if P(A│B) = P(A) or, equivalently, P(B│A) = P(B). The wording of the question precludes P(A) = P(B); therefore, responses B and C cannot be correct.
