A survey of 1,200 men and women asked, "Do you earn over $75,000 per year?" The table below shows the responses for males and females:

Male Female total

Income over $75,000 585 485 1,070

Income below $75,000 65 65 130

Total 650 550 1200

Based on these data, are "being female" and "earning over $75,000" independent events?

No, P(being female | the person earns over $75,000) = P(being female)

No, P(being female | the person earns over $75,000) P(being female)

Yes, P(being female | the person earns over $75,000) = P(being female)

Yes, P(being female | the person earns over $75,000) P(being female)

I am thinking the answer is No, P(being female | the person earns over $75,000) P(being female) because 485/1200= .40 and 550/1200 = .45 and .40 does not equal .45
