Answer:

P ( a and b ) =  0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : P(a) = 0.50 and  p(b) = 0.20.

To find  : what is p(a and b).

Solution : We have given that P(a) = 0.50 and  p(b) = 0.20.

P( a and b ) = p(a) × p(b) .

Then P ( a and b ) =  0.50 × 0.20 .

P ( a and b ) =  0.1 = [tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex].

Therefore, P ( a and b ) =  0.1

The p(a and b) given p(a) and p(b) is 0.10.

What is p(a and b)?

Independents events are events whose occurrence do not depend on each other.

p(a and b) can be determined by multiplying p(a) and p(b) with each other.

p(a and b) = p(a) x p(b)

0.50 x 0.20 = 0.10
