F : ‘the card drawn is a king’

उत्तर
In a deck of 52 cards, 26 cards are black and 4 cards are kings.
∴ P(E) = P(the card drawn is black) = `26/52 = 1/2`
∴ P(F) = P(the card drawn is a king) = `4/52 = 1/13`
In the pack of 52 cards, 2 cards are black as well as kings.
∴ P (EF) = P(the card drawn is a black king) = `2/52 = 1/26`
⇒ P(E) × P(F) = P(EF)
⇒ `1/2 * 1/13 = 1/26`
Therefore, the given events E and F are independent.

Two hundred patients who had either Eye surgery or Throat surgery were asked whether they were satisfied or unsatisfied regarding the result of their surgery.
The following table summarizes their response:

| Throat | 70 | 25 | 95 |
| Eye | 90 | 15 | 105 |
| Total | 160 | 40 | 200 |
