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

Patients should never assume they are being given the appropriate drugs. They should make sure they know which drugs are being prescribed, and always double-check that the drugs received match the prescription.

Did you know?

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
