Question

Transcribed Image Text:Part B: One student will be selected at random from the class. Consider events X and Y shown.
X: the selected student is female
Y: the selected student is right-handed
Which of the following statements about events X and Y is TRUE?
O A. The events are not independent because the probability of X is not equal to the probability of X given Y.
B. The events are independent because the number of right-handed students in the class is larger than the number of female
students.
C. The events are independent because the number of categories for dominant hand is different from the number of categories for
gender.
D. The events are not independent because for one of the dominant hand categories the number of female students is 0.
