Probability that the first 2 of the friends to show up to the movie are friends he has known since kindergarten but the third not is 1/10
Total friends = 10
Friends from kindergarten = 4
Probability is the chance that a given event will occur. Probability of an event lies within 0 to 1
P(E) = Favourable outcomes / Total outcomes
Probability of getting 1st friend from kindergarten = 4/10
Probability of getting 2nd friend from kindergarten = 3/9
Probability of getting 3rd friend not from kindergarten = 6/8
Since all these probabilities are independent, We can use Multiplicative identity. Thus,
Required probability is 4/10 * 3/9 * 6/8
= 1/10
Thus, Probability that the first 2 of the friends to show up to the movie are friends he has known since kindergarten but the third not is 1/10

<span>3 of the 20 toothbrushes are defective, so the initial probability of selecting a defective toothbrush on the first try is 3/20. After that, there will be 2 defective toothbrushes in the remaining 19, so the probability of selecting one of those on the 2nd try will be 2/19. To get the probability of those two events happening sequentially, we multiply the two probabilities. Thus (3/20)*(2/19) = 6/380 = 0.0157, or about 1.6%.</span>
Independent events mean that one event happening does not have to have the other event to happen.
The probability of both events happening is the product of the events.
The answer would be:
E. P(A ∩ B) = P(A) x P(B)
