Answer 1

Given that;

Danielle picks a card at random. Without putting the first card back, she picks a second card at random.

We want to determine whether the two events above are dependent or independent.

Since after Danielle picks the first card at random, she did not put the card back before picking the second. So, the result of the second pick would be dependent on the result of the first pick.

Therefore, the two events are dependent.
