2) There are 5 green balls and 3 red balls in a bag. I am picking a ball out of a bag twice. After the first ball is picked out, I note the colour and place the ball back into the bag. Are these events independent or dependent?
3) I am rolling a dice twice. Are the events independent or dependent?
4) I have a bag that contains red and black pens. I am going to pick 2 pens out of the bag. After I have picked the first pen, I will note the colour and then NOT replace the pen (the pen will stay out of the bag). Are these events independent or dependent?
