rolling a number cube and flipping a coin
how is this dependent?a
The event of rolling a number cube and flipping a coin is not dependent on each other because the outcome of one event does not affect the outcome of the other. The result of flipping a coin does not impact the result of rolling a number cube, and vice versa. Therefore, these events are independent of each other.

The set of events that is dependent is:
- choosing a ball from a bag and then choosing another ball without replacing the first
When choosing a ball from a bag and then choosing another ball without replacing the first, the outcome of the first event (which ball is chosen) affects the chances or probabilities of the second event (which ball is chosen next). This is an example of dependent events, as the outcome of the first event impacts the outcome of the second event.
