Which of the following statements is correct if the events A and B have nonzero probabilities?
 a. A and B cannot be both independent and disjoint
  b. A and B can be both independent and disjoint
  c. A and B are always independent
  d. A and B are always disjoint

Question 2

Suppose P(A) = 0.60, P(B) = 0.85, and A and B are independent. The probability of the complement of the event (A and B) is:
 a. .4  .15 = .060
  b. 0.40 + .15 = .55
  c. 1 - (.40 + .15) = .45
  d. 1 - (.6  .85) = .490
