Can two events with nonzero probabilities be both independent and mutually exclusive? Choose the correct answer below.
A. Yes, two events with nonzero probabilities can be both independent and mutually exclusive when their probabilities add up to one.
B. No two events with nonzero probabilities cannot be independent and mutually exclusive because if two events are mutually exclusive, then when one of them occurs, the probability o the other must be zero.
C. Yes, two events with nonzero probabilities can be both independent and mutually exclusive when their probabilities are equal.
D. No, two events with nonzero probabilities cannot be independent and mutually exclusive because independence is the complement of being mutually exclusive.
