Question 2 Determine the number of outcomes in the event. Then decide whether the event is a simple event or not. Explain your reasoning. A computer is used to randomly select a number between 1 and 1000. Event A is selecting a number greater than 600. O 1; Simple event because it is an event that consists of a single outcome. O 400; Simple event because only one number is selected. O 600; Not a simple event because it is an event that consists of more than a single outcome. O 400; Not a simple event because it is an event that consists of more than a single outcome.

In a lottery, the top cash prize was $646 million, going to three lucky winners. Players pick four different numbers from 1 to 57 and one number from 1 to 47. A player wins a minimum award of $200 by correctly matching two numbers drawn from the white balls (1 through 57) and matching the number on the gold ball (1 through 47) What is the probability of winning the minimum award?
For the given pair of events, classify the two events as independent or dependent. Getting caught in traffic Spilling coffee in the car Choose the correct answer below. A. The two events are independent because the occurrence of one does not affect the probability of the occurrence of the other. B. The two events are dependent because the occurrence of one does not affect the probability of the occurrence of the other. C. The two events are independent because the occurrence of one affects the probability of the occurrence of the other. D. The two events are dependent because the occurrence of one affects the probability of the occurrence of the other.
