Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a multinomial experiment, the trials are independent, not dependent. Therefore, option B is not true. Option A is true as there are at least two categories being considered, option C is true as the sum of the category probabilities is always equal to 1, and option D is not always true as the probabilities for each category can be different.
