b) Compute P(A), P(B) and P(C). Which rule do you see?
c) Which elements belong to AUB?
d) Show that P(AUB) is 11/18.
e) Which elements belong to AnB? Calculate P(AnB).
f) Calculate P(A|B) by rule F, and then show with Rule E that A and B are not independent.
g) Which elements belong to AnC? show that P(AnC) is 1/6.
h) Calculate P(A|C) by rule F and then show with Rule E that A and C are independent.
