Ruby is making earrings for herself and her four best friends as a project. she has a 1.3 cm long rod of pure platinum that she wants to divide into 10 equal pieces — one piece for each earring.

in order to get it exactly right, she is going to measure each 0.13 cm long piece in millimeters. how many millimeters long will each piece be?

a) one student is chosen from classroom a, then a student is chosen from classroom b.  

step-by-step explanation:

independent events are ones in which the probability of one event does not affect the probability of the second event.

one student is chosen from classroom a; this does not affect the chances of choosing a student from classroom b.   this makes these independent events.

when one card is chosen from a standard deck and then set aside before a second card is chosen, the probability of the second card being chosen changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when one student is chosen from classroom a and then a second student is chosen from classroom a, the probability of choosing the second student changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when a letter is chosen from the alphabet and then a second letter is chosen, the probability of choosing the second letter changes.   this makes them dependent events.
