Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In probability theory, what does the term 'independent events' mean?
  • Step 1: Understand what an event is. An event is something that can happen, like flipping a coin or rolling a die.
  • Step 2: Learn about outcomes. An outcome is the result of an event, like getting heads when you flip a coin.
  • Step 3: Know what independent means. Independent means that one thing does not influence or change another thing.
  • Step 4: Apply this to events. Independent events are two or more events where the outcome of one event does not change the outcome of the other event.
  • Step 5: Example of independent events: If you flip a coin and roll a die, the result of the coin flip (heads or tails) does not affect the result of the die roll (1 to 6).
