Ronald Bauer · Answer 1

When two events are dependent, this means that one event cannot occur without the other, or simply put the two events are connected to each other in one way or the other.

When two events are independent, this means that the two events can occur separately, with one event having no effect on the occurrence of the other.

Therefore the dependent and independent events are as follows:

Independent event:

c. rolling a die twice

The outcome of the first die does not affect the outcome of the second die, hence independent.

Dependent event:

d. drawing one card from a standard deck, not replacing it, and then selecting another card

By the act of not replacing the drawn card, we are changing the probability of selecting another card, hence dependent.
