Which of the following pairs of events are dependent?
options:
A)Drawing a heart from a deck of cards, replacing it, and then drawing another heart.
B)Tossing three coins at the same time and getting tails on all three.
C)Randomly choosing a captain and an assistant captain from a team of 18 players.
D)Choosing a class president from one group of students and a vice-president from a different group of students.
My work:
First let's define what a dependent event is: Two events are dependent if the outcome of the first event affects the outcome of the second event, so that the probability is changed. So out of those four choices (A,B,C,D) the correct choice that displays the dependent event is A) Drawing a heart from a deck of cards, replacing it, and then drawing another heart.
Is this choice correct?
