Q:

Sarah is rolling a number cube, numbered 1-6, and recording the number that shows up on each roll.Event A describes the probability of getting a 4 on the first roll.Event B describes the probability of getting a 4 on the second roll.Which statement correctly explains whether the events A and B are dependent or independent?Question 1 options:A. A and B are dependent events, because the probability of the first roll will affect the probability of the second roll.B. A and B are independent events, because the probability of the first roll will affect the probability of the second roll.C. A and B are independent events, because the probability of the first roll will not affect the probability of the second roll.D. A and B are dependent events, because the probability of the first roll will not affect the probability of the second roll.

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:CStep-by-step explanation:Definition: Two events, A and B, are independent if the fact that A occurs does not affect the probability of B occurring.Event A = getting a 4 on the first roll.Event B = getting a 4 on the second roll.True option C: A and B are independent events, because the probability of the first roll will not affect the probability of the second roll.
