PLEASE HELP!!!

Answer 1

Answer: Choice A

eye color and gender are independent

============================================

Here's my reasoning:

Someone's eye color does not have any bearing on their gender or vice versa, so the two events are not linked together. They are independent. That's why I think choice A is the answer.

Something like doing homework is strongly linked to doing well on a test. The more homework practice you get, the more likely your grade will be better. We can rule out choice B since the two events are dependent.

Choice C is a bit tricky, but I would argue that tea (whether hot or cold) helps sooth the throat after a long day of singing. It might help reach those high notes maybe. So you could say the events are dependent. I would change "likes" to "drinks" because the person may not like the drink, but still rely on it to get the job done. We can rule out choice C.

Choice D is dependent since someone who practices free throws is likely to make the team. This is assuming the coach doesn't just randomly select people from a list. We can rule out choice D.
