Maths4U Original · Short practice

Two independent signals A and B occur with probabilities \(\displaystyle \frac{3}{5}\) and \(\displaystyle \frac{2}{5}\). In a separate sequence, \(\displaystyle r=4\) independent trials each have success probability \(\displaystyle \frac{3}{5}\).

Find P(A and B).

Enter one number or fraction. Use at least six decimal places when needed; a distribution calculator may be used for probabilities.
