Question #1
If events A and B are independent, which of the following must be true?
A. P(A) + P(B) = 1
B. A and B are mutually exclusive
C. P(A|B) = P(A)
D. P(A ∩ B) = 0

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Independence means knowledge of B does not affect A's probability, so P(A|B) = P(A); this is equivalent to P(A∩B)=P(A)P(B).

Question #2
In a 2×2 attribute table, if (A)=400, (B)=500, N=1000, and observed (AB)=250, the expected (AB) under independence is:

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Expected (AB) = (A)×(B)/N = 400×500/1000 = 200,000/1000 = 200. Observed 250 > 200 suggests positive association between attributes A and B.
