Step 1 :Given the total number of teenagers is 400, the number of males is 200, the number of females is 200, the number of 0 activities is 44, the number of 1-2 activities is 132, the number of 3-4 activities is 116, the number of 5+ activities is 108, the number of males with 0 activities is 22, and the number of females with 5+ activities is 71.
Step 2 :Calculate the probability of each event. The probability of being male is \(\frac{200}{400} = 0.5\), the probability of 0 activities is \(\frac{44}{400} = 0.11\), the probability of being female is \(\frac{200}{400} = 0.5\), and the probability of 5+ activities is \(\frac{108}{400} = 0.27\).
Step 3 :Calculate the probability of both events occurring. The probability of being male and having 0 activities is \(\frac{22}{400} = 0.055\), and the probability of being female and having 5+ activities is \(\frac{71}{400} = 0.1775\).
Step 4 :Check if the events are independent. The events 'male' and '0 activities' are independent because \(0.5 \times 0.11 = 0.055\), which is equal to the probability of both events occurring. However, the events 'female' and '5+ activities' are not independent because \(0.5 \times 0.27 \neq 0.1775\).
Step 5 :Check if the events are mutually exclusive. The events '1-2 activities' and '5+ activities' are not mutually exclusive because they can both occur at the same time.
Step 6 :\(\boxed{\text{(a) The events 'male' and '0 activities' are independent.}}\)
Step 7 :\(\boxed{\text{(b) The events 'female' and '5+ activities' are not independent.}}\)
Step 8 :\(\boxed{\text{(c) The events '1-2 activities' and '5+ activities' are not mutually exclusive.}}\)
