	Dependent Events	Show/Hide
	Two events are dependent if the result of the first event affects the outcome of the second event
	Example: What is the probability of choosing a green candy and then a red candy, without replacement?
	6 green + 4 red = 10 candies	Probability of the first event: P(green)=6/10
	Because the first candy is NOT being replaced, the probability of the second candy depends on the first.
	5 green + 4 red = 9 candies	Probability of the second event: P(red)=4/9
	Multiply the probabilities together to determine the probability of both events occurring.
	Independent Events	Show/Hide
	Two events are independent if the occurrence of one does not affect the probability of the other.
	Tossing a coin and rolling a number cube are independent events.
