The probability of contamination in batch 1 of a drug (event

The probability of contamination in batch 1 of a drug (event A) is 0.16, and the probability of contamination in batch 2 of the drug (event B) is 0.09. The probability of contamination in batch 2. given that there was a contamination in batch 1, is 0.12. Given this information, which statement is true? A. Events A and B are independent because P(BIA) = P(A). B. Events A and B are independent because P(A| B) ≠P(A). C. Events A and B are not independent because P(BIA)≠P(B). D. Events A and B are not independent because P(A| B)=P(A).
