Question

You pick a number between 1,000 and 5,000. Then you flip a coin.Identify if the two events are independent or dependent. Explain.

Answer 1

The two events are independent, because the fact that you picked a number will not affect the result of the coin, and vice-versa, if you flip a coing and pick a number, the fact that you flipped the coin does not affect the number you will pick.
