At their San Jose store, 5 in every 25 items purchased are returned R = event that an item is returned S = event that an item was purchased at their San Jose store Are events R and S independent?

6. Convergence
... ℙ( X n → X as n → ∞) = 1 The statement that an event has probability 1 is the strongest statement that we can make in probability theory. Thus, convergence with probability 1 is the strongest form of convergence. The phrases almost surely and almost everywhere are sometimes used instead of the phras ...
