Answer:

a) 0.24

b) 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following probability

P(A) = 0.4 P(B) = 0.6

a) P(A and B) =P(A)P(B) {Independent)

P(A and B) = 0.4×0.6

P(A and B) = 0.24

b) Given P(A | B) = 0.5, this is a conditional probability

If P(A | B) = P(A and B)/P(B)

Since If P(A | B) = 0.5

0.5 = P(A and B)/P(B)

P(A and B) = 0.5(P(B)

P(A and B) = 0.5(0.6)

P(A and B) = 0.3
