- “Are They Connected?” – A Probability Challenge!

Which statement is true for independent events?

• One event changes the other

• Both events always happen

• Events do not affect each other

• Events are always opposite

A spinner is spun, and then a die is rolled. These events are:

• Dependent

• Independent

• Mutually exclusive

• Conditional

Which of the following best describes dependent events?

• Events that occur at the same time

• Events that do not affect each other's outcomes

• Events that are impossible to occur together

• Events that affect each other

Which of the following is an example of dependent events?

• Tossing a coin and rolling a die

• Drawing two cards with replacement

• Drawing two marbles without replacement

• Spinning two spinners

Which formula is used when A and B are dependent events?

• P(A and B)=P(A) × P(B|A)

• P(A and B) = P(A) × P(B)

• P(A and B) = P(B|A)

• P(A and B) = P(B) − P(A)

If you roll a die and toss a coin, are these events independent or dependent?

• Independent

• Dependent

• Mutually exclusive

• Uncertain
