No cheating on your red math workbook!
To calculate the probabilities of compound events, you can use the multiplication rule or the addition rule, depending on whether the events are independent or mutually exclusive. The multiplication rule is used when the events are independent, and you multiply the probabilities of the individual events. The addition rule is used when the events are mutually exclusive, and you add the probabilities of the individual events.
You multiply together their individual probabilities.
There is no secret: the procedures are well studied. However, it is important to know whether the events are independent or dependent.
They are not!
Things and numbers don't have probabilities. Situations and events that can happen have probabilities.
If the events are independent then you can multiply the individual probabilities. But if they are not, you have to use conditional probabilities.

This statement is true. The outcome results can be represented on a tree diagram which will allow people to view the compound event.

Yes
The answer depends on if and how the events depend on one another.
If the events are independent then you can multiply the individual probabilities. But if they are not, you have to use conditional probabilities.
Two events are said to be independent if the outcome of one event does not affect the outcome of the other. Their probabilities are independent probabilities. If the events are not independent then they are dependent.
False
Yes. no its not its false :from Scott Powell
are they dependent or independent? define success and failure for the 2 events. probability of success (EX: drawing a face card) = number of possible successes / total possible events. Multiply the two separate probabilities to get the probability that both occur.
