Question

Jacqueline will spend a fair spinner with the numbers 0 1 2 3 and 4 a total of three times if event a spinner lands on numbers are greater than 2 and event be total sum of 9 which of the following best describes event A and B

Answer 1

Events are said to be INDEPENDENT if the occurence of one does not rest or depend on the outcome of another. Therefore, since the outcome of event A and B does not depend on each other, then both events are INDEPENDENT

Giving a brief description of the options given :

• Dependent events are simply events where the outcome of one event affects the occurence of the other. This is usually related to selection without replacement, where the number of subjects changes after each selection.

• Mutually Exclusive events simply refers to a scenario whereby two events cannot occur simultaneously. For instance, obtaining a head and a tail simultaneously during a single coin throw.

• Complement events describes two exactly opposite events. For instance, the Complement of obtaining a 4 on a 6 - sided die roll is (1, 2, 3, 5, 6)

For the event described above , the occurrence of A does not hinder the occurrence of the other (not a dependent event ) and it is possible to have both events simultaneously (not Mutually exclusive) (If we have 3 in all throws then both events have occurred )

Therefore, the best description for events A and B is that both events are INDEPENDENT.
