Probability of Compound Events

Question 11 • Math Models A

Sample Response:No. Choosing two dimes are dependent events. The probability of choosing the first dime is 14 and the probability of choosing the second dime is 17 . The probability that both coins are dimes is (14)(17) = 128. Check all that you considered in your response.The events are dependent.The size of the original sample space is 8. It changes to 7 after the first dime is chosen.The probability of picking the first dime is 2/8.The probability of picking the second dime is 1/7To find the
