Independent and Mutually Exclusive Events · Example 6
Let event C = taking an English class. Let event D = taking a speech class.
Suppose P(C) = 0.75, P(D) = 0.3, P(C|D) = 0.75 and P(C AND D) = 0.225.
Justify your answers to the following questions numerically.
(a) Are C and D independent?
(b) Are C and D mutually exclusive?
(c) What is P(D|C)?
