If two events

A

B

p(A \cap B)

Solution:

Concept:

For independent events, the probability of both occurring is the product of their individual probabilities.

Explanation:

By definition, two events

A

and

B

are independent if and only if

P(A \cap B) = P(A) \cdot P(B)

Thus,

p(A \cap B)

equals

P(A) \times P(B)

Answer:

Option B:

P(A) \times P(B)
