Santiago Gray · Answer 1

A - drawing a blue marble and a yellow marble at the same time from a bag of marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

Dependent events are events in which one occurring affects the likelihood of the other.

If you draw two marbles out of a bag at the same time, the probability of drawing the second marble will be changed. This is because there will be one fewer marble after the first one is drawn.
