This document discusses dependent and independent events. It provides examples of dependent events, where the result of one event affects the other event, such as studying hard and getting a high grade. Independent events are those where one event does not affect the other, such as tossing a coin and rolling a die. The document then provides activities for students to determine whether example event pairs are dependent or independent.
