How do you calculate the probability of the intersection of two independent events?
- P(A ∩ B) = P(A) * P(B)
- P(A ∩ B) = P(A) + P(B)
- P(A ∩ B) = P(A) - P(B)
- P(A ∩ B) = P(A) / P(B)
The probability of the intersection of two independent events is calculated as the product of their individual probabilities. So if A and B are independent, P(A ∩ B) = P(A) * P(B). This is a direct result of the Multiplication Rule for independent events.
