Exercise 19 We roll two dice. Consider the following events. Can you find 3 events that are independent? Explain either in words or by computation. A = the first die shows an odd number. B = the second die shows an even number. C = the sum of the two dice is even. D = the product of the two dice is 12. E = at least one of the dice shows a 3 or 4. %3D
