Question 1042031: A survey was taken of children between the ages of 7 and 12. Let A be the event that the person rides the bus to school, and let B be the event that the person has 3 or more siblings.


Which statement is true about whether A and B are independent events?
A and B are independent events because P(A∣B) = P(A) = 0.12.
A and B are independent events because P(A∣B) = P(A) = 0.25.
A and B are not independent events because P(A∣B) = 0.12 and P(A) = 0.25.
A and B are not independent events because P(A∣B) = 0.375 and P(A) = 0.25.
