Question

Consider an experiment of a single throw of a pair of unbiased normal dice. Let three events ε 1 , ε 2 and ε 3 are defined as follows ε 1 : getting prime numbered face on each dice ε 2 : getting the same number on each dice ε 3 : getting the sum of 4 on two dice Which of the following is not true?, The probabilities P ε 1 , P ε 2 , P ε 3 are in arithmetic progression., The events ε 1 and ε 2 are dependent, P ε 3 ε 1 = 2 9, P ε 3 ε 1 = 1 9
