Suppose you roll two dice. Assume one is red and one is blue so that they are distinguishable. Let A be the event "The sum of the two dice is 7." and B be the event "The red die is 4." and C be the event "The difference of the two dice is even."
a.) Are A and B independent? Justify your answer.
b.) Are B and C independent? Justify your answer.
c.) Are A and C independent? Justify your answer.
When 2 events A and B are independent, P(A) x P(B) = P(A and B)
Number of outcomes on roll of two dice = 6x6 = 36
P(A) = 6/36 {(6,1), (1,6), (2,5), (5,2), (3,4), (4,3)}
= 1/6
P(B) = P(red dies is 4)
= 6/36
= 1/6
P(C) = P(differences is even)
= P(both are odds) + P(both are evens)
= 3/6 x 3/6 + 3/6 x 3/6
= 1/2
a) P(A and B) = 1/36 {(4,3)}
P(A) x P(B) = 1/6 x 1/6 = 1/36
P(A and B) = P(A) x P(B)
So, A and B are independent
b) P(B and C) = 3/36 {(4,2), (4,4), (4,6)}
= 1/12
P(B) x P(C) = 1/6 x 1/2
= 1/12
P(B and C) = P(B) x P(C)
So, B and C are independent
c) P(A and C) = 0
P(A) x P(C) 0
So, A and C are not independent

Question 5: You are given a fair red die and a fair blue die, and roll both dice uniformly at random and independently of each other. Define the events A = “the sum of the results is at least 9”, B = “at least one of the two rolls results in a 2”, C = “at least one of the two rolls results in a 5”. • Determine Pr(A), Pr(B), and Pr(C). • Determine Pr(B | C). • Are the...
We roll a green die and a red die. Let A be the event that the sum of the numbers shown is 7 and let B be the event that both dice show odd numbers. Are events A and B independent? Show your work. Thank you :)
