Question

Which of the following describes an example of independent events? A. generating a random number between 1 and 25, and then generating another random number between 1 and 25, excluding the first one picked B. generating a random number between 1 and 25, and then generating another random number between 1 and 25, including the first one picked C. generating a random number between 2 and 25, and then generating another random number less than the first one picked D. generating a random number between 1 and 24, and then generating another random number greater than the first one picked

Answer 1

B. generating a random number between 1 and 25, and then generating another random number between 1 and 25, including the first one picked

Answer 2

B is correct

Explanation:

A, C, and D all depend on the first event in some way, but B is the only one that does not depend on the first event in any way.
