Consider the following experiment. A playing card is drawn from a deck of 52 cards and replaced, then a second card is drawn. The associated sample space ? consists of pairs which record the suit and denomination of the two cards drawn. Let A be the event, "the first card is a spade. Let B be the event, "the second card is a spade." Let C be the event, "both cards have the same color." Please recall that playing cards are either red, the hearts and diamonds, or black, the spades and clubs. Determine whether a.) A and B are independent. b.) B and C are independent. c.) A, B, and C are independent.
