B) No

Question

Determine whether the given information is consistent with a probability distribution.   $P ( A ) = 0.7$ ; $P ( B ) = 0$ ; $P ( A \cap B ) = 0$  
A)Yes
B) No

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The given information is consistent with a probability distribution. The sum of probabilities $P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B) = 0.7 + 0 - 0 = 0.7$, which is less than or equal to 1, and $P(B) = 0$ and $P(A \cap B) = 0$ are valid probabilities, indicating no overlap between A and B, which is possible in a probability distribution.
