Step-by-step explanation:

Given are four statements and we have to find which are true.

A) If the probability of an event occurring is 0, then it is impossible for that event to occur.

Yes true for impossible events only prob is 0

B) If the probability of an event occurring is 1.5, then it is certain that event will occur.

False probability can never exceed1.

C) If P ( A) equals 0, then the probability of the complement of A is 1.

When A is an impossible event, A' is a certain event. Hence true.

D. Probability can never be a negative value.

True. Probability is the ratio of favourable outcomes to total outcomes. Hence being a positive value divided by another positive value can never be negative.
