The probability that a given urine sample analyzed in a pathology lab contains protein is 0.73 (event A). The probability that the urine sample contains the protein albumin is 0.58 (event B).
Event A: The sample contains protein.Event B: The sample contains the protein albumin.
The probability that a sample contains protein and that the protein is albumin is 0.58. Which statement is true?
A.Events A and B are dependent because P(A and B) P(A) + P(B).
B.Events A and B are dependent because P(A and B) = P(A) + P(B).
C.Events A and B are dependent because P(A and B) = P(A)P(B).
D.Events A and B are dependent because P(A and B)     P(A)      P(B).
