43 [Independent Events] Definition: Events are said to be independent of ‘each other if the happening of any one of them does not affect the happening of any other ie. P(A/B)=P (A) andP (B/A)=P B) Example: When a dice is thrown twice, second throw. Theorem: IfAand B are independent events associated with random experiment, then [r(an8)-2(4) 708) ] Proof: result of first throw is independent of the result of the P(ANB) ‘We know that P (A/B) = PB) ‘When A and B are independent events.
