QUESTION 20 Mohammed has applied for positions at Company A and Company B. The probability of getting an offer from Company A is 0.45 and the probability of getting an offer from Company B is 0.3. If the probability of getting both offers is 0.135, which of the following statements is true? Getting the two offers are mutually exclusive but not independent events. O Getting the two offers are independent but not mutually exclusive events. Getting the two offers are independent and mutually exclusive events. O Getting the two offers are neither mutually exclusive nor independent events. QUESTION 21 Given that 90% of the ZU students are female and that 5% are enrolled in College of Education, can we conclude that 95% (0.90+0.05) of ZU students are female or enrolled in College of Education? OYes, by the multiplication rule No, because the events are not independent O No, because the events are not mutually exclusive Yes, by conditional probabilities
