You roll two number cubes.

Let event A = You roll an even number on the first cube.

Let event B = You roll a 4 on the second cube.

Are the events independent or dependent? Why?

Answer: Independent because they have no outcomes in common


Explanation:

The reason for this answer is because the event A is the first roll

And then you roll a 4 independently, they both do not control each other making it B because the outcomes can be totally different
