b. Are the events "being a woman" and "preferring the coastline" independent events?
Let F = being a woman and let C = preferring the coastline.
(a) Find P(F AND C).
(b) Find P(F)P(C)
Are these two numbers the same? If they are, then F and C are independent. If they are not, then F and C are not independent.
