Event A has probability 0.4 event B has probability 0.5 If A and B are disjoint then the probability that both events occur is?

If two events are disjoint, they cannot occur at the same time. For example, if you flip a coin, you cannot get heads AND tails. Since A and B are disjoint, P(A and B) = 0 If A and B were independent, then P(A and B) = 0.4*0.5=0.2. For example, the chances you throw a dice and it lands on 1 AND the chances you flip a coin and it land on heads. These events are independent...the outcome of one event does not affect the outcome of the other.


Can two disjoint sets be equivalent?

Yes,Because not all disjoint no equivalent other have disjoint and equivalent


Are complementary events also mutually exclusive events?

Yes, they are. Mutually exclusive events cannot occur together. Complementary events cannot occur together either because an event and its complement are the negative of each other.


What dies it mean for events to occur independently?

When events are to occur independently, that means all of the events will happen on their own with no form of trigger from another. They are all independent of each other and will happen when they decide to happen.


What events are correlated but do not necessarily have causal relationship?

You did not list any events.


What is a joint sets and disjoint sets?

Joint sets:Joint sets are those which have common elements Disjoint sets : A pair of sets is said to be disjoint if their intersection is the empty set. That is to say, if they share no elements. All of the usual operations can be performed on disjoint sets, so long as the operation makes sense. (For example, taking the complement of one with respect to the other could pose problems.)


Difference betweenDisjoint sets and pairwise disjoint sets?

Assuming that, by 'disjoint', you mean that a collection of sets has an empty intersection, here is the difference between pairwise disjoint and 'disjoint': If a collection of sets is pairwise disjoint, it implies that the collection is 'disjoint': If no two sets overlap, then no k sets would overlap for any k, since this would require the overlap of at least two sets i.e. you know for sure that k things aren't in contact at a common point if you know that no two of them are in contact with each other. However, if a collection of sets is 'disjoint' (so the overall intersection is empty), it doesn't mean that the collection is pairwise disjoint. For instance, you could have a collection of 4 sets containing two overlapping pairs, where no set in one pair overlaps with a set in the other. So the intersection of the whole thing would be empty without pairwise disjointness. You could have a few things in contact with each other without all of them sharing a point of contact.


What are the major events that may occur in the lives of older people?

Some of the major events that may occur in the lives of older people include witnessing marriages of their children or births of grandchildren. Other major events may include marking anniversaries.


What natural events can occur when crustal plates move over each other?

earthquakes and tsunamis


What events occur to build mountain range?

Most mountain ranges occur in the region of major plates colliding with each other, forcing one to go over top of the other.


Which of these occur when Earth's crust slips a fault line tornadoes earthquakes snowstorms or water erosion?

Earthquakes occur when the crust slips. The other events and processes are unrelated.


Why be at war if Revelation cannot be changed?

Perhaps the war needed to occur before the other events of revelation could unfold.
