INDEPENDENT AND DEPENDENT
EVENTS
What is the difference
between independent and
dependent probabilities?
INDEPENDENT PROBABILITY
Independent probability events are
when you replace an object so it doesn’t
effect the next experiment.
2 different events that don’t effect
each other.
Ex: Spinning a spinner and landing on
yellow with 4 quarters and flipping a cup
and landing on the open end.
DEPENDENT PROBABILITY
Dependent probability events is when you
don’t replace an object so it does effect the
next experiment.
When 2 different events don’t rely on each
other.
Ex: Sandra has 7 lilies, 3 roses, 12 tulips,
and 4 daises. If she picked 8 flowers at
random to clip, what is the probability that
she would pick 3 lilies, 1 rose, and 4 tulips?
THE DIFFERENCE
o The difference of dependent and
independent is when you replace an object
it is independent.
o When you don’t replace an object is when
it is dependent.
