Let two fair six-faced diceAandBbe thrown simultaneously. IfE1is the event that dieAshows up four,E2is the event that dieBshows up two andE3is the event that the sum of numbers on both dice is odd, then which of the following statements is not true?

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

E1Ashow up4

E2Bshows up2

E3 Sum is odd (i.e., even+odd or odd+even)

PE1=66.6=16

PE2=66.6=16

PE3=3.36.6+3.36.6=24=12

PE1E2=16.6=PE1 . PE2

E1 & E2are independent

PE1E3=1.36.6=PE1 . PE3

E1 & E3are independent

PE2E3=1.36.6=112=PE2 . PE3

E2 & E3are independent

PE1E2E3=0P(E1)×P(E2)×P(E3)
