Which of the following is an example of a dependent event? A) flipping two coins B) rolling a number cube and spinning a spinner C) choosing two scoops of ice cream D) choosing a cookie at random, eating it, and then choosing another at random

thomaster (thomaster):

I think C, your choice is dependent on the kind of icecream you like :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

also it is unlikely that you would choose the same flavour both times

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's true satellite73.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think that the answer is D

thomaster (thomaster):

@julian25 When you pick something randomly you select it independently. Otherwise it wouln't be random.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but by chosing a cookie eating and it yuo had change the original number of cokkies

thomaster (thomaster):

yea, but by picking 2 scoops of ice cream you change the original number of scoops and the original volume of ice cream :P So in your way, it would be C and D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i m unsure so u still will say C?

thomaster (thomaster):

wow not scoops lol xD

thomaster (thomaster):

Yes C, all other 3 are random events.

OpenStudy (anonymous):
