What are independent events in probability?

Back

Independent events are events where the outcome of one event does not affect the outcome of another. For example, flipping a coin and rolling a die are independent events.

What are dependent events in probability?

Back

Dependent events are events where the outcome of one event affects the outcome of another. For example, drawing two cards from a deck without replacement is a dependent event.

What is the formula for calculating the probability of independent events?

Back

P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B) for independent events A and B.

What is the formula for calculating the probability of dependent events?

Back

P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B|A) for dependent events A and B.
