A Correct answer
Explanation

The condition (AB)(αβ) = (Aβ)(αB) is the mathematical test for independence between attributes A and B. If this equality is NOT satisfied, the attributes are associated. When the product of opposite diagonal frequencies equals the product of the other diagonal, attributes are independent (not associated).
