Yes, when two probabilities are multiplied, it typically indicates a compound event, specifically in the context of independent events. This multiplication reflects the likelihood of both events occurring together. For instance, if you have two independent events A and B, the probability of both occurring is calculated by multiplying their individual probabilities: P(A and B) = P(A) × P(B). However, if the events are not independent, you would need to consider their relationship to determine the combined probability correctly.
No, it is not.
Two events are said to be independent if the outcome of one event does not affect the outcome of the other. Their probabilities are independent probabilities. If the events are not independent then they are dependent.
true A compound event consists of two more outcomes or simple events
When two probabilities are added together, the result represents the probability of either of the two events occurring, provided that the events are mutually exclusive (i.e., they cannot happen at the same time). If the events are not mutually exclusive, their combined probability would require adjustments to avoid double-counting the overlap. Thus, in the case of mutually exclusive events, the sum of their probabilities is a valid representation of a simple event.
A compound event, in probability theory is an event which is made up of two (or more) simpler events. Thus, tossing two coins in a compound event made up of tossing one coin and tossing another coin. Getting soaked in rain consists of the simple events that it rains (where you are) and you are outdoors without an umbrella (at that time).
I dont know
No, it is not.
This statement is true. The outcome results can be represented on a tree diagram which will allow people to view the compound event.

No, "two day event" should be hyphenated as "two-day event" when used as a compound adjective before a noun. The hyphen clarifies that the two days are describing the type of event. For example, you would say, "We are attending a two-day event."
That probability is the product of the probabilities of the two individual events; for example, if event A has a probability of 50% and event B has a probability of 10%, the probability that both events will happen is 50% x 10% = 5%.
Yes, two probabilities.
