Although I think they want 4, it could be either 3 or 4.
If there are multiple ice cream containers, then it would be independent. If it was from the same container, then it would be dependent. Like the eaten cookie, the scoop is not replaced.
Which of the following is an example of a dependent event?
1 flipping two coins
2 rolling a number cube and spinning a spinner
3 choosing two scoops of ice cream
4 choosing a cookie at random, eating it, and then choosing another at random
1 answer
