Suppose we roll two six-sided dice. Consider event A as getting an odd number on die 1, event B as
getting an even sum for the two dice. Are event A and B independent? If yes, then how?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given that 

Two six-sided dice are rolled 

Sample space = S

S={ (1,1) (1,2) (1,3) (1,4) (1,5) (1,6) 

(2,1) (2,2) (2,3) (2,4) (2,5) (2,6) 

(3,1) (3,2) (3,3) (3,4) (3,5) (3,6) 

(4,1) (4,2) (4,3) (4,4) (4,5) (4,6) 

(5,1) (5,2) (5,3) (5,4) (5,5) (5,6) 

(6,1) (6,2) (6,3) (6,4) (6,5) (6,6) }
