If the probability of one event occurring is .40 and the probability of a second event occurring is 0.60, then the probability that both events will occur must be 1.0 since that is the maximum value a probability can be. select one: a. true b. false

Let and . The the probability both events occurring .

This shows

If A and B are independent

Thus, the statement is (B) False.

1 is c

2 is a

3 is a

step-by-step explanation:

take the logarithm of both sides (the base of the log doesn't matter):

apply the exponent property - this says that :

distribute the log terms on both sides:

group like terms together:

divide through both sides by the coefficient on :

you can do some additional rewriting here using the properties of the logarithm to simplify things if you like:
