(multiplication rule for two dependent events, p(a and b) = p(a) x p(b |a) or p(b) x p(a |b) Mutually exclusive events: the joint probability of two mutually exclusive events is always zero.

Solution: p (a bar) - the compliment = . 3, solution equation: (tahir, 2019) A university president has proposed that all students must take a course in ethics as a requirement for graduation.
