Let A and B be independent events, with P (A) = 1/2 and P (B) = 1/2. Read statements (a) through (d). Then decide whether each statement is TRUE or FALSE. (a) P (A) and P (B) are mutually exclusive and independent is [Select] (b) P (A) and P (B) occur at the same time but do not affect the probability of each other is [Select] (c) P (An B) = 0 is [Select] (d) P (AUB) = 3/4 is [Select]
