Two eventis are independent if knowledge about the first doesn't change your expectation about the second.
a) Independent: After you know that the first die showed 4, you stille expect all 6 numbers from the second. So, the fact that the first die showed 4 doesn't change your expectation about the second die: it can still show numbers from 1 to 6 with probability 1/6 each.
b) Independent: It's just the same as before. After you know that the first coin landed on heads, you still expect the second coin to land on heads or tails with probability 1/2 each. Knowledge about the first coin changed nothing about your expectation about the second coin.
a) Dependent: In this case, there is a cause-effect relation, so the events are dependent: knowing that a person is short-sighted makes you almost sure that he/she will wear glasses. So, knowledge about being short sighted changed your expectation about wearing glasses.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Tear this apart piece by piece
15 - 8 = 7
7 * 3 = 21
11 + 21 = 32
Now so far this much is correct. The problem is the next sign. Is it add or is it divide. The only way to resolve it is to do it both ways.
Add 4
32 + 4 = 36
Divide 4
32 / 4 = 8 1/4 = 8
