Let $A, B,$ and $C$ be three mutually independent events. Consider the two statements $S_1$ and $S_2$:
$S_1 : A$ and $B \cup C$ are independent.
$S_2 : A$ and $B \cap C$ are independent.
Then:

  • A
    Both $S_1$ and $S_2$ are true.
  • B
    Only $S_1$ is true.
  • C
    Only $S_2$ is true.
  • D
    Neither $S_1$ nor $S_2$ is true.
