Determine which of the following pairs of events are independent. a: a bird lands on your head. b: the bird lays an egg. a: a mosquito lands on your arm. b: you get a mosquito bite. a: a chicagoan visits new york on vacation. b: he visits central park. a: a green ball is drawn from a box with five balls and placed next to the box. b: a red ball is drawn next and placed next to the green one.

Independent events are those where event A is not dependent on event B. With changes is another event, the event does not change.

A: A bird lands on your head.

B: The bird lays an egg.

B: You get a mosquito bite.

This is dependent as it is very much possible that a mosquito bites you when it sits on your arm.

A: A Chicagoan visits New York on vacation.

B: He visits Central Park.

A: A green ball is drawn from a box with five balls and placed next to the box.
