Question

Which two sets of events are most likely independent?

Answer 1

Answer:

A and C

Step-by-step explanation:

Two events, A and B, are independent if the fact that A occurs does not affect the probability of B occurring.

Options B and D give events which are most likely to be dependent, because if a driver texts while driving affects the possibility that the driver can get into the accident and if a woman lives in Alaska affects she can have a heavy winter coat.

Options A and C are two sets of most likely independent events, because the girl's singing does not affect on her wish to become a lawyer and a man's hair doesn't depend on where his father lives.
