Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
From the table we have to:
Probability of syrup is 0.96
Probability of waffles and syrup is 0.32
P (Waffles | Syrup) = P (Waffles and syrup) / P (syrup)
So:
If this equality is met, the probabilities are dependent, if on the contrary
P (Wafles | Syrup) = P (Wafles) then are independent probabilities.

So we have to:

The probabilities are dependent.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have xy = 28, x² + y² = 65 and x³ + y³ = 407.
Since (x + y)(x² - xy + y²) = x³ + y³,
x + y = (x³ + y³)/(x² + y² - xy)
= (407) / [(65) - (28)]
= 407 / 37
= 11.
Hence the sum of the numbers is 11.
