Question

which word is associated with multiplication when computing probabilities? choose the correct answer below. not and or disjoint

Explanation:

In probability, when we want to find the probability of two or more events occurring together (an "and" situation), we use the multiplication - rule. For example, if we want to find the probability of event A and event B happening, we multiply their individual probabilities (assuming they are independent or we adjust for dependence). The word "not" is related to complement probabilities, "or" is related to addition - rule of probabilities, and "disjoint" is related to non - overlapping events and addition of probabilities for such events.

Answer:

B. And
