How does independence between events affect the calculation of their joint probability?
- It makes the joint probability equal to the difference of the probabilities of each event
- It makes the joint probability equal to the product of the probabilities of each event
- It makes the joint probability equal to the ratio of the probabilities of each event
- It makes the joint probability equal to the sum of the probabilities of each event
If events are independent, their joint probability equals the product of their individual probabilities. That is, P(A ∩ B) = P(A) * P(B) for independent events A and B.
