Answer choices in this exercise appear in a different order each time the page is loaded. What is dependent event?Dependent events: Two events are dependent when the outcome of the first event influences the outcome of the second event. The probability of two dependent events is the product of the probability of X and the probability of Y AFTER X occurs.
When two events do not affect each other the events are called?Two events are said to be independent events if the probability of one event does not affect the probability of another event. If two events are mutually exclusive, they are not independent. Also, independent events cannot be mutually exclusive.
When two events are dependent the occurrence of one event does not influence the probability that the other will occur?Two events are independent if the occurrence of one does not affect the probability of the other occurring. Two events are dependent if the first event affects the outcome or occurrence of the second event in a way the probability is changed.
What do you call an event whose occurrence of one does not affect the occurrence of the other?In statistics and probability theory, independent events are two events wherein the occurrence of one event does not affect the occurrence of another event or events. The simplest example of such events is tossing two coins. The outcome of tossing the first coin cannot influence the outcome of tossing the second coin.
