the event of getting two heads when flipping two fair coins
why
The event of getting two heads when flipping two fair coins is dependent because the outcome of the second coin flip is influenced by the outcome of the first coin flip. If the first coin flip results in tails, then it is impossible to get two heads. So, the two events are not independent of each other.
