Question

in an experiment, a spinner with 5 equal sections (numbered 1 to 5) is spun and then a coin is tossed.
event a: the spinner lands on 3.
event b: the coin lands on tails.
are these two events independent or dependent?
dependent independent

Explanation:

Two events are independent if the outcome of one does not affect the outcome of the other. The result of spinning the spinner (Event A) has no impact on the result of tossing the coin (Event B), and vice versa.

Answer:

Independent
