Step-by-step explanation:
To determine if events are independent, one has to confirm if there's no relationship between the events.
Event A. Not shutting off the water in the kitchen sink.
Event B. Receiving a high water bill.
Both Events are related as Event B is proportional to Event A. This means they are not independent but rather dependent
The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:
22.5° F.
Explanation:
The temperature increases 1.5° per hour. From 5:00 AM to 12:00 PM is 12-5 = 7 hours. This makes an increase of 1.5(7) = 10.5°.
The temperature started at 12°F; increasing by 10.5° gives us
12+10.5 = 22.5°F.
