Aand b are two events. the notation for conditional probability is p(b|a) . which notation is the probability of two events being not independent

P(B/A)≠P(B)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that A and B are two events and P(B/A) is the given probability notation for conditional probability.

For independence of two events with conditional probability the two events are said to be independent if

P(B/A)=P(B)

This equation can be derived from the definition of conditional probability.

P(B/A)=P(A∩B)/P(A)

If two events are independent then P(A∩B)=P(A)*P(B), substituting this in the above equation

P(B/A)=P(A)*P(B)/P(A)

P(B/A)=P(A).

So, if two events are not independent then the notation of probability is

P(B/A)≠P(B)

the mistake in the pattern is that :

b. the decimal point was moved one too many place values each time

the correct pattern could be made by :

b. moving the decimal point to the right the same numbers of place values as the exponents
