When randomly selecting adults, let M denote the event of randomly selecting a male and let B denote the event of randomly selecting someone with blue eyes. What does P(MJB) represent? Is P(M|B) the same as P(B/M)? What does P(M|B) represent? O A. The probability of getting a male, given that someone with blue eyes has been selected. O B. The probability of getting someone with blue eyes, given that a male has been selected. O C. The probability of getting a male or getting someone with blue eyes. O D. The probability of getting a male and getting someone with blue eyes. Is P(M|B) the same as P(B(M)? O A. No, because P(B|M) represents the probability of getting someone with blue eyes, given that a male has been selected. O B. No, because P(B|M) represents the probability of getting a male, given that someone with blue eyes has been selected. O C. Yes, because P(B|M) represents the probability of getting a male, given that someone with blue eyes has been selected. O D. Yes, because P(B|M) represents the probability of getting someone with blue eyes, given that a male has been selected.

Question
When randomly selecting adults, let M denote the event of randomly selecting a male and let B denote the event of randomly selecting someone with blue eyes. What does P(M|B) represent? Is P(M|B) the same as P(B|M)?
What does P(M|B) represent?
O A. The probability of getting a male, given that someone with blue eyes has been selected.
O B. The probability of getting someone with blue eyes, given that a male has been selected.
O C. The probability of getting a male or getting someone with blue eyes.
O D. The probability of getting a male and getting someone with blue eyes.
Is P(M|B) the same as P(B[M)?
O A. No, because P(B|M) represents the probability of getting someone with blue eyes, given that a male has been selected.
O B. No, because P(B|M) represents the probability of getting a male, given that someone with blue eyes has been selected.
O C. Yes, because P(B|M) represents the probability of getting a male, given that someone with blue eyes has been selected.
O D. Yes, because P(B|M) represents the probability of getting someone with blue eyes, given that a male has been selected.
