Prob #2: Suppose that the probabilities that an answer can be found on Google is 0.95, on Answers.com is 0.92, and on both websites is 0.874. Are the possibilities of finding the answer on the two websites independent?

Yes, because (0.95)(0.92) = 0.874

No, because (0.95)(0.92) = 0.874

Yes, because 0.95 > 0.92 > 0.874

No, because 0.5(0.95 + 0.92) ≠ 0.874

There is insufficient information to answer this question.
