I worked on this question and I think it is dependent. can any one tell me if I'm right? From a group consisting of 2 Douglas-fir, 3 hemlock and 1 balsam seedlings, 3 are to be randomly selected. Let X denote the number of hemlocks, and Y the number of D.F.s. Are X and Y independent? My answer: No. When one seedling is pulled, say a D.F., it increases the probability that a hemlock will be chosen next) To be independent the following must be true P(X)=P(XlY) Event X is pulling a Hemlock Event Y is pulling a DF P(X)=3/6 P(Y)=2/6 P(XlY) = P(X∩Y)/P(Y) = 0/(2/6)
