Question

If the conditional probability of an event A given another event B is same as the marginal probability of the event A, then events A and B are mutually exclusive.

Select one:

True

False

Answer 1

If

P(A|B) = P(A), then we can say that A and B are independent events.

To be mutually exclusive events,

So, If the conditional probability of an event A given another event B is same as the marginal probability of the event A, then events A and B are mutually exclusive. (FALSE)
